We are a peaceful people, [C] struggling we struggle, [D] and we don't look for trouble [G] just after [Bm] rounds.
[Em] But when outside faces [C] from foreign places [D] talk about taking over, we [G] ain't backing down.
No, we ain't giving up no mountain, we [Am] ain't giving up no tree, we [D] ain't giving up no river
that [G] belong to we, not one little sake, not [Am] one rice grain, [D] not one grass, not [G] a blade of grass.
[Am] [D]

[Am]
[D] [E]

not one little sake, not [Am] one rice grain, not [D] one grass, not a [G] blade of grass,
not one golden apple, not [Am] one jamun, not a [D] drop of water from the [G] palm root,
not one sherry drop, not [Am] one mami, not [D] one guinea pig, not [G] one white sheep.
