Intro 1
(A minor) (E major)
Let (A minor) me
Verse 1
tell you about a man
I met on the road (E minor) in Johannesburg
(A minor) I was searching for my roots
I didn't know (E minor) where to go
So, (A minor) he told me, try down my brother,
in the search (E minor) for your ancestor
An (A minor) d if you seek, you shall find,
and through the pages (E minor) of time
I found joy (G major) and (A minor) happiness
I found joy (G major) and I found (A minor) happiness
When I found (G major) my root (A minor) s, my roots, my roots, (G major)
yeah, my (A minor) roots, my roots, oh (E minor)
(E major) Let (A minor) me tell you about a soul
that has been search (E minor) ing so long
And (A minor) can't really find the home,
yes where it (E minor) belongs
Weeping (A minor) willow, don't call my (E minor) name
Weeping (A minor) willow, don't call (E minor) my name
Now come (A minor) let me tell you about a race
That has been oppressed (E minor) for so long
Some (A minor) have really lost their
hope and their joy (E minor)
I found joy (G major) and (A minor) happiness
I found joy (G major) and I found (A minor) happiness
When I found (G major) my root (A minor) s
My roots, my root (G major) s, yeah
My (A minor) roots, my roots, oh (E minor) (E major)
(A minor) It's the story of a people
That travel the triangle route
Sons and daughters of kings and queens
From the African soil (E major)
My (A minor) roots, my roots,
do you (E minor) know (G major) your roots? (E minor) (G major) (A minor)
My roots, my roots,
do you (E minor) know your root (G major) s?
(A minor) Oh, this is not a story,
it's a testament (G major) of time
(A minor) And don't you think I'm pointing fingers,
just reality (E minor) on my mind (E major)
An (A minor) d the only way we can make a change (G major)
Is by ac (A minor) cepting the rights
and the wrongs
Equal (G major) rights and justice for all
My (A minor) roots, my roots
Do you know (G major) your roots?
(A minor) My roots, my roots
Do you know (E minor) your rules? (E major)
(A minor)
