by Bob Marley, covered by The Fugees A dedication to all the refugees worldwide One time say, say, say / C F C G / : Said I remember when we used to sit In the government yard in Brooklyn Observing the crookedness As it mingled with the good people we meet Good friends we had, oh good friends we've lost Along the way In this great future you can't forget your past So dry your tears, I say, and to my peeps who passed away, / C G Am F / : No woman, no cry (2x) Here, little darlin', don't shed no tears No woman, no cry / C G Am F / C F C G / : Said I remember when we used to rock In the project yard in Jersey And then Georgie would make a fire light As stolen cars passed through the night Then we'd hit the corner store For roots, paper and brew, ooh ooooh My drink's my only remedy For pain of losing family, but while I'm gone, Shorty, {Bridge} Everything's gonna be all right (x2) Fugees come to the dance tonight Everything's gonna be all right / C G Am FG / / / C G Am F / Everything's gonna be all right (x2) The gun man's in the house tonight Everything's gonna be all right Oh ah oh ah (x2 refrains) So woman no cry No, no woman, no woman, no cry Oh, my little sister, don't shed no tears No woman, no cry, say say say Said I remember when we used to sit In the government yard in Trenchtown Observing the hypocrites As they would mingle with the good people we meet Good friends we had, oh good friends we've lost Along the way, hey In this great future you can't forget your past So dry your tears, I say, and No woman, no cry (2x) Oh my little darlin', don't shed no tears No woman, no cry, to my peeps who passed away Oh ah oh ah (x1 refrain) |
