Chords for Marcia Griffiths: Stories From The One Love Peace Concert

_ Looking back on the [G] One Love concert, _ _ _ _ _ standing there on stage, even with the high tension [Em] and the intensity of the warring political atmosphere and the prior attempt on Bob's life, I felt no fear.
_ Because to see [F] Bob's confidence _ [G] and that gave us comfort [N] and assurance _ that this was _ ordained. _ _
And even [G] after the [Gm] attempt on his life and his physical exodus, _ _ [D] he [Em] returned _ _ confidently, [D#] _ _ positive, [G] _ _ _
knowing that _ he's on a mission from God.
_ _ _ And [E] this is good over [G] evil.
_ _ [A#] _ Positive.
[B] And this is a [G] new chapter.
And this is something that [D#] we know that we must conquer.
_ _ [G#] While Bob was there talking on stage, it even led [G] me _ to shout _ spontaneously, _ I hear you brother.
_ _ Because who were around him knew that this was no act, but the real deal as he walked _ his talk every [Gm] day.
_ _ This moment in history was not only [Em] unifying, _ _ _ intenseful _ and impactful, _ [D#] but for the first time in this known history, _ that a rebel, _ a so-called outcast, _ was able to [N] bring together, even for a moment, _ bitter _ warring political enemies [G] together in a unifying [Em] embrace. _
And pledge for peace.
_ It was historic.
[A#] _ _ This is [G] a power of Bob Marley.
_ So now to see after 38 years later from that event, _ Bob's influence and message has covered the globe.
_ As anywhere you find people _ seeking peace and [G#m] freedom, no matter the language or creed, _ Bob's musical message is right [A] there.
