[G] Long before a boat anchored the harbor, [F] long before steel drums filled the breeze,
[G] God lifted these islands from the ocean, [Cm] they've stood strong for centuries.
[A] So it's fitting they were named after men with golden [F] halos,
cause angels don't give in, just cause a little wind [G] blows.
We say we can [E] when they say we [F] can't, see what it is [G] when they see what it ain't.
With blood, sweat and tears [E] and a new coat of paint,
we're [F] just a sinner's choir [G] singing a song for the saints.
Whoa, [E] oh, oh, oh.
[F] Whoa, [G] oh, oh, oh.
Whoa, [E] oh, oh, oh.
[F] Whoa, oh, [G] oh, oh.
[C] The farmer in the field of sugar cane, for the drunkard in his hammock,
drowning out after the rain, [G] for the teacher in the classroom,
kid kicking cans in the street, [C] for the captain and his [G] barmaid,
Praying down on bended [C] knee.
We say we can [Am] when they say we [F] can't.
See what it is [G] when they see what it ain't.
[C] With blood, sweat, and tears [Am] and a new coat of paint,
we're [F] just a sinner's choir [G] singing a song for the saints.

[C] Whoa, oh, [Am] oh, oh, oh, oh, [C] oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, [G] oh, oh.
[A] This brokenness will heal.
[G] This weakness will be strong.
[F] Let's lift our voice together as the saints go marching [C] on.
We say we can [Am] when they say we can't.
[C] See what it is
[G] See what it [C] ain't with blood sweat and tears [A] and a new coat of paint
