This is a bass-led tune so play the notes on the E and A string loud
and clear. Most of the chords are very short and dampened down-strokes
(d), but a few are allowed to ring for one beat and are played as fast
upstrokes (u). 
This rhythm is quite complex, so play it 'squarer' during the choruses
if you prefer. Also, if your voice can take it, capo up a few frets 
for a better reggae sound.

Verse 1:
G
Said, said,
C        G/B      Am                  F
  Said I remember when we used to sit
C              G/B           Am          F
  In the government yard in Trenchtown.
C                  G/B          Am        F
            Oba, Observing the hypocrites                
             C         G/B                     Am      F
As they would mingle   with the good people we meet,
C            G/B              Am                     F
  Good friends we had oh      good friends we've lost
C               G/B          Am         F
               along the way.
C               G/B        Am               F
  In this bright future you can't forget your past
C              G/B      Am                   F
  So dry your  tears I     say                            And...

Chorus.

Verse 2:
Said, said,
Said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown.
And then Georgie would make a fire light
As it was log wood burnin' through the night.
Then we  would cook corn meal porridge
of which I'll share with you.
My feet is my only carriage,
So, I've got to push on through, but while I'm gone     I mean...
C                     G/B          Am                  Fm   G
  Ev'ry thing's gonna be alright.  Ev'ry thing's gonna be alright.
C                     G/B          Am                  Fm   G
  Ev'ry thing's gonna be alright.  Ev'ry thing's gonna be alright.
Am                  F              C             G/B   Am    F
Ev'ry thing's gonna be alright no, woman, no cry.
       C         F         C      C      G
No, no woman, no woman, no cry.
C               G/B
  Oh, my little sister don't shed no tears.

  No woman no cry.
