Written by: Jimmy Cliff Originally from The Harder They Come soundtrack If this looks too hard for you, transpose it -1 and use a capo on the first fret. Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky Waiting for me when I die But between the day you're born and when you die They never seem to hear even your cry So as sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine And the harder they come, the harder they'll fall, One and all Ooh the harder they come the harder they'll fall, One and all Well the officers are trying to keep me down Trying to drive me underground And they think that they have got the battle won I say forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done 'Cause as sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine And the harder they come, the harder they'll fall, One and all Ooh the harder they come the harder they'll fall, One and all Oooh Oooh Oooh I keep on fighting for the things I want Though I know that when you're dead you can't But I'd rather be a free man in my grave Than living as a puppet or a slave So as sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine And then the harder they come, the harder they'll fall, One and all Ooh the harder they come the harder they'll fall, One and all And the harder they come, the harder they'll fall, One and all (repeat several times and fade)
