But doors were shut, the lines were cut,
E
The walls went up so quick

The windows of opportunity were small

Sides we had to pick

And oh yeah, I forgot to call

Seeds to the roots to the trunk to the truth
A                          E

In the day up to the sky

And we climbed up so high
A                 E                  D
And we carried on the only way we can
A
Laugh on and live
E
Learn how to forgive
D                        A               E

What you gave to me way back when we first met.
D
What you gave to me way back when we first met

I, I still got your records

and don�t worry, Desmond Dekker's doing fine.
