Silver Tongue Show

Em                              C

Dem fire as Judas come, thinking them can ride on 
                        G
The words of Marcus Garvey 
        Em
(oh man de were) Filling up our heads with visions 
                C
while it's our souls on which they bargain 
Em

We shall give our lives to them 
                        Dm              C
Now did ya, did ya see dem ride into the war 
                Dm              C
Gone so long they call out to the one
                        Dm
Son I'm here for you they trapped him to belong, 
C
When they were all 
Em                      Dm      G

G                                       Am
(Good man say) You're just a string in the puppet show
