[Verse 1]
[Am]Wo, [Dm]man,[Am][Dm]
deh [Am]you are![Dm][Am][Dm][C]
When [G]the race gets [C]hard to run,
It means [Dm]you just can't
take the [C]pace.
When it's time [G]to have [C]your fun,
You find [Dm]the tears run on
down through your face,
[F]Then you stop and think a little:
Are you [Am]the victim of the system?
[F]Anyday now they gon' let
you down;
[Am]Remember, Natty will be there
[Dm]To see you through.

[Verse 2]
[Am](I) And ain't it good
[G]to know (know) now:
[F]Jah will be wai[Em]ting [G]ther[Dm]e.[Am]
(I) Ain't it doggone good to
[G]know (know) , you [F]all;
Jah will be [Em]waiting [Dm]there.
[Am]Wait [Dm]in Summer, [Am]wait in Spri[Dm]ng,
[Am]Wait [Dm]in Autumn,
[Am]Winter thing[Dm],[C]
(Tribe) goes up[G],
all [C]the tribe [G]goes [C]down:
Bring my [Dm]children from
[C]the end [G]of [C]d'earth
Many a time [G]I sit

[Verse 3]
[C]and wonder why
[Dm]This race so - so very hard to [C]run,
Then I say to my soul: take courage,
[Dm]
Battle to be won,
[F]Like a ship that's tossed and driven,
[Am]
Battered by the angry sea, yea- [F]eah!
Say the tide of time [Am]was raging;
Don't let the fury [Dm]fall on me,
no, [Am]no!

[Verse 4]
(I) 'Cause I [G]know (know) - know:
[F]Jah will be wai[Em]ting[G][Dm]
[Am]there;
(I) Ain't it good to [G]know (know) now:
[F]Jah will be wai[Em]ting [G]ther[Dm]e. Wo-[Am][Dm][Am][Dm]
oo- o- oo- o! [Am]Ooh, yeah![Dm][Am][Dm]
[C]Lost and found,
[G]who spe[C]ak I g[G]ive[Dm];[C]
Lost and found,
[Dm]who [C]speak I gi[G]ve;[Dm]
[C]Speak I [G]give, [C]lost and [G]found.
[C]Lost and found,
[G]who[F] spe[C]ak I g[G]ive[Dm];[C]
Lost and [Dm]found, [C]who speak I [Dm]give.
