Verse 1:
Bm F#m Bm
And when soldiers came; them say war.
F#m
Them said them come to make us tame,
Bm F#m
And from that day, until now on;
Bm F#m
We were jeered and laughed to scorn.
Bm F#m
Things used to be ire, (before the soldiers came),
Bm F#m
Things used to be nice, so nice now.

Bm F#m
Things used to be nice, so nice, so nice.
Chorus 1:
G A
Our country them did enter, yeah,
G A
Troops trodding left, right and centre, (everywhere).
G Bm
One moment at peace with nature, now victims of a massacre.
G
We got our spears, we got our shields,
Bm
But their guns were greater; prepare for a slaughter!

G Bm (x2)
A C#m (strum C#m (x4))
(Spoken over Above Chords):
Way down in Africa, where the backra still rules,
Day after day the Black Man is suffering now,
Far more than when he was a slave.
Is there a need for war? No.
Peace my bredren; here them bawl.
Bodies in mutilated condition,
Faces scarred beyond recognition.
Is this what Civilization means to me?
Then without it, I prefer to be, so...
Verse 3:

Give I back I witch doctor,
Bm F#m
