_ _ _ [G] _ _ [F] _ _ [G] _
_ [C] _ _ [G] _ _ [F] _ _ _
Well they [G] tell me of a fire up in the sky,
Ooh-yah-yah!
[F] Waiting for me when I die.
Oh, _ [G] between the day you're born and when you die,
I'm losing [F] sight.
They never seem to hear even your cry.
I'm gonna cut myself.
[Em] So as sure as the sun will shine,
I'm gonna cut [Am] myself.
I'm gonna get my shame out while it's mine.
I'm gonna cut myself.
Because [G] the harder they come, [F] the harder they fall.
[C] Swallow!
I'm swallowing all it.
I'm swallowing all it.
I say the [G] harder they come, [F] the harder they fall.
[C] Swallow!
I'm swallowing all it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Swallowing [G] all it.
Well, the oppressors try to keep me down.
Tipo, Harry, and [F] Razzwan.
Trying to drive me underground.
What's the matter with them?
[G] They think that they have got the final one. _
I [F] say forgive them, Lord.
They know not what they've done. _
[Em] So as sure as the sun will shine,
I'm [Am] gonna get my shame out while it's mine.
Because [G] the harder they come, [F] the harder they fall.
[C] Swallow!
_ _ I'm swallowing all it.

Swallowing all it.

[G] And I keep on fighting for the things I want.
How much?
[F] Oh, I know the things you did.
You can't.
Reality.
[G] But I'd rather be a free man in my grave _
[F] than living as a puppet or a slave.
Just so [Em] as sure as the sun will shine,
I'm [Am] gonna get my shame out while it's mine.
I don't tell them how to start.
