[Em][Am][Dm]

[Verse 1]
Rastaman, [Em]you see
[G]
The skeptics [Am]say we tried in our lost
cause in search of the father
Said [Dm]lost cause,
meaning our [Em]cause is hopeless
[Dm]The scientists put[Am] such distance
between us and the scripture
The children [Em]think they are
for the layer[G]s
And it's on our [Am]voice the teacher
take teaches hostility
And yet, the gov[Dm]ernment won't
let schoolchildren [Em]pray
[Dm]And just seem like[Am] a club to them
To pick their teams, then divide up
Or just to [Dm]see who will get
[Em]to H[G]eaven
[Am]Watch them now,
and guide [Dm]them straight[Em]
I said we [Am]watch them now
Inequity them spray
[Em]

[Verse 2]
[G]
To be in a [Am]position to
influence the population
Is a [Dm]gift given to [Em]us
[Dm]But too [Em]many Mcs r[Am]ise to
talk of killing and de[Dm]mise
[Am]They [Em]glamourize and glorify [G]murder
To cause the [Am]death of your own men
You're doomed,
[Dm]you're doome[Em]d
[Dm]Talking on the [Am]track you're a murderer,
a murderer
It's [Dm]over, [Em]over, over[G]
[Am]Watch them now, guide them straight
Watch [Dm]them,
cause they never [Em]know their self
When they [Am]get the uncrushed,
Fire in front of them
[Em]What's a judg[F]ment?
[Em]I'm not good[Gsus4] at it[G]

[Verse 3]
Men [Am]just want to make them[Em]selves big
[Am]And they[Dm] won't see r[Am]asta[Dm],

[Am]Protestant, and Methodist
I know you don't see rasta,
[Dm]you don't see [Em]rasta[G]
In all High [Am]Council of the land,
where Wisdom is contra[Dm]band
[Am]You won't see [Dm]rasta,
[Em]oh see r[Am]asta[Em][G]
We [Am]watch them now and tell the
children to do the same
[Dm]Watch them,
because they never know [Em]their own self
When they [Am]get the uncrashed, pure
fire in [Em]front of them
[G]For the[Am]ir feet run to evil,
and they make case to shed blood
[Dm]They're scandalous and dangerous[Em]
[Dm]And they[Em] own wait [Am]for their own death
They sneak for their own lives
It's [Dm]over [Em]for them, over f[G]or them, them
[Am]They run, run to evil
And make case to shed
[Dm]blood
They're scandalous and popular
[Em]No m[Dm]atter how

[Verse 4]

[Am]CDs you make
You're never to [Dm]be
[Am]Jah know[Dm] you work [Em]for
[Dm]the devi[Em]l[G]
[Am]Watch them now, guide them straight
Watch [Dm]them
Cause they never [Em]know themselves
When [Am]they get the uncrashed
When they get [Em]the[Dm]
[Em]uncr[G]ashed

[Verse 5]
[Am]Men just want to make
themselves big
And they won't see [Dm]rasta,

I know you don't see [Dm]rasta,

In all High [Am]Council of the land,
where Wisdom is contraband
You won't [Dm]see rasta, oh see [Em]rasta
[Dm]I have no representa[Am]tive
Still, with the judge, I sit
[Em]I know [Dm]Rasta[Em]fari[G][Am]
