(G major) (A minor)
Verse 1
Tell (A minor) St.
Peter at Africa's Gate
I'm coming (G major) home, though I may be (A minor) late
Tell them it's a long, long haul
The bottle (G major) is fixed,
but I'm standing (A minor) tall
Maybe it's why I took so long
And he (G major) don't want to know
how I'm getting along (A minor)
Tell (G major) him that I'm doing well,
it's (A minor) why I'm living in hell (G major)
I'm a true -born Afric (A minor) an
Maybe he (C major) think I'm lost in a foreign (A minor) land
And cease to be a natural African
Tell (G major) him that I'm doing well
in (A minor) spite of living in hell
Tell him that I'm coming
home to hell to feel my own
(G major) I'm a true -born African, (A minor)
can't you see that's what
I am (G major) (A minor) (G major) (A minor)
May (G major) be it's why I took so long (A minor)
And he (G major) don't want to know
how I'm along (A minor)
Maybe he (C major) thinks I'm lost
in a foreign land (A minor)
And cease to be a natural african
Tell (G major) him that I'm doing well
in spite (A minor) I'm living in hell
Tell him that I'm coming home
to hell to build my own
(G major) I'm a true -born African, (A minor)
