Dm                                                         C
What was learned from my father, yes I'll teach it to my son
Dm                                                              C
What was learned from my mother, yes I'll teach it to my daughter
Dm                                                                         C
For you must remember my friend, the line of history stretches far beyond we
Dm                                                         C
And still we stand time, and time again as a tribute to them



(we'll call this the pre-chorus)
C                          Dm              Am              G
Well now tell me if there's one thing that you're wanting, you gotta let me know
Dm                 Am                G
Tell me something, tell me anything, why did they all have to go
              Dm            Am                G
For if there's one thing, that you're wanting, you gotta let me know
Dm            Am            G
Say something, say anything, before I have to go, for Zion is awaiting


(chorus)
Dm                     Am                   G
Jah people in this life, you got to be head strong, head strong
Dm                     Am                    G
Teach your children right, or they won't live too long, too long
Dm                     Am                   G
Jah people in this life, you got to be head strong, head strong
Dm                  Am                  G
Live up in the right, or you won't live too long, too long


Dm      Am      Dm      Am      Dm      Am      Dm      Am...            
(Right here there there is a long instrumental part with the singer singing just a few
things in the distance, play those chords until it ends)


Dm                                                              C
What was learned from my father, yes I'll teach it to my daughter
Dm                                                         C
What was learned from my mother, yes I'll teach it to my son
Dm                                                                   C
For it was them who said, don't get mixed up in your knowledge of today...

(And then head on back up to the pre-chorus and chorus for one more round, and that's it.)
