[G#] Oh yeah, [F#] oh yeah, [C#]
alright
[F#] They [G#] tell me of a pie up in the sky
[F#]
Waiting for me when I die
But [G#] between the day you're born and when you die
[F#] You'll never seem to hear the end of your cry
So [F]
I'm sure as the sun will shine
I'm [A#m] gonna get my share now, what's mine
And [G#] then the harder they come
[F#] The harder they fall, [C#] one and all
Ooh, [G#] the harder they come
The [F#] harder they fall, one [C#] and all
But [G#] the oppressors are trying to keep me down
[F#] Trying to drive me underground
And [G#] they think that they have got the battle won
I say [F#] forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done
Cause [F] I'm sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna [A#m] get my share now, what's mine
And then [G#] the harder they come
The [F#] harder they fall, one and [C#] all
Ooh, the harder they come
The [F#] harder they fall, one and [C#]
all
[G#] Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
[F#] I'll [G#] keep on fighting for the things I want
Though [F#] I know that the end will be too fast
But I'd rather be a free man in a grave
[F#] Than live in this perfect forest state
So [F] I'm sure as the sun will shine
[A#m] I'm gonna get my share now, what's mine
And then the [G#] harder they come
The [F#] harder they fall, one and [C#] all
Ooh, [G#] the harder they come
[F#] The harder they fall, one and [C#] all
The [G#] harder they come
[F#] The harder they fall, [C#] one and all
