Key: E major
Verse 1
in the place where I was born
A
G
A
On a tiny Caribbean island
the air was cool and calm
A
G
A
With the smell of burning cinder,
G
D
he offered me respite
That night the cause of freedom
G
A
It ate the liberation
G
D
of my paradise in the sun
And now every time injustice wins
and freedom is denied
A
G
A
I smell the burning cinder,
G
D
the fire gets in my eyes
A
G
Cold and bleeding, I'm way out of there
A
G
Oh, you're burning, smelling in the air,
D
A
I had no fear, I had no fear,
G
D
God will be there.
And for those who gawk,
and think we'll walk,
and injustice will prevail,
A
G
A
He's another hammer,
G
D
he's another nail.
Go build your hopes on sandy slopes,
G
A
But before you strike your hammer,
G
D
it'll be coming down again
For every time injustice wins
G
A
I smell the burning cinder,
G
D
the fire gets in my eye
A
G
Oh, reflating, I went out of there
A
G
Oh, you're burning, smelling in the air
D
A
I had no fear, I had no fear
