[Bm] [F#m]
[B] [F#] [C#]
[B] [F#m]
[Em] [F#m]
[Em] My granny is crying, my [F#m] brother is crying
That's the [Bm] poor man's time, that's the [F#m] poor man's life
That's the [Bm] poor man's time, poor [F#m] man's time
My [Em] brother sit down in my home, I roast the red roast
[F#m] I hear the news flash, say they killed the real
[Em] That's the poor man's time, [F#m] that's the poor man's time
[Bm] My granny is crying, my brother is [F#m] crying
That's the poor man's time, [Bm] poor man's [F#m] time
[B] [F#] That's the poor man's time, [Bm] poor man's [F#m] time
to the poor inside, you [Em] know why?
[F#m] Oh, that's the poor [Em] inside.
[F#] But you're gonna [F#m] open the way,
[Bm] no man don't get to jump in.
[F#m] Every man got to shine,
no matter what the [Bm] price,
no matter what the cost,
we got to make [F#m] it.
[A] No matter what [Em] they say,
[F#m] we've got to make it.
[B] No matter what they say,
we've got to make it.
See down in my home,
in Yarossa, break [F#m] through.
I hear genius flat, say them [Bm] killers,
say them killers, say them killers, say them killers.
[C#] Oh, just [B] take a little trip to my fence,
[F#m] see them lying down.
It's [B] the poor man's style.
[F#m]
Get no [B] sugar, water, great, ooga [F#]-ooga.
[C#] In the poor man's style.
[B] Get no flower, but Jah Jah give me [Bm] power.
In the poor man's style.
[F#m] Get no [B] aisle, me have to walk a couple miles.
[C#] In the poor man's style.
[B] Girl, watch your shoes in the poor man's style.
[F#] Jah Jah.
[B] [F#m]
