_ [A] _ to the [G] docks to watch their [D] ships come and go. _

_ _ [Bm]
He [A] knows where he comes from.
[G] _
That is [D] why he believes the ocean _ can give [A] him

His [A] name is [G] Tamba.

to watch the [D] planes come and go.
[B] He has [A] changed his African [G] name

Of course, he [A] doesn't know how it [G] hurts.
Whatever [D] name he can be proud of,
he [A] hopes that one day
[G] _
one [D] of these birds of the sky
can [A] take him away
_ [G] to a very, [D] very far land.
Running [A] away from the very [G] roots
that so [D] many black people in the world
are [A] wanting to come back [G] to.
The [D] place they call home.

They wish [A] they were _ _ [G] home.
They wish they [D] were in Africa. _ _
They wish [A] they were _ [G] home.

[A] Living his way, I've [G] seen the other way.
[D] I got nothing to say.

as I walked [D] away.
I heard my friend sing.
