[Intro] C#  G#  F#  G# 
        C#  G#  F#

           G#
Well, they tell me of a pie up in the sky
F#
Waiting for me when I die
      G#
But between the day you're born and when you die
      F#
They never seem to hear even your cry

      F
So as sure as the Sun will shine
          Bbm
I'm gonna get my share now, what's mine
             G#
And then the harder they come
    F#                        C#
The harder they fall, one and all
         G#
Ooh, the harder they come
F#                        C#
Harder they fall, one and all

         G#
Well, the oppressors are trying to keep me down
F#
Trying to drive me underground
         G#
And they think that they have got the battle won
        F#
I say forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done

          F
Cause as sure as the Sun will shine
          Bbm
I'm gonna get my share now, what's mine
             G#
And then the harder they come
    F#                        C#
The harder they fall, one and all
         G#
Ooh, the harder they come
F#                        C#
Harder they fall, one and all

( C#  G#  F#  G# )
( C#  G#  F# )

     G#
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
        F#
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
       G#
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
     F#
Than living as a puppet or a slave

      F
So as sure as the Sun will shine
          Bbm
I'm gonna get my share right now, what's mine
             G#
And then the harder they come
    F#                        C#
The harder they fall, one and all
         G#
Ooh, the harder they come
F#                        C#
Harder they fall, one and all

             G#
And then the harder they come
    F#                        C#
The harder they fall, one and all
         G#
Ooh, the harder they come
F#                        C#
Harder they fall, one and all

             G#
And then the harder they come
    F#                        C#
The harder they fall, one and all
         G#
Ooh, the harder they come
F#                        C#
Harder they fall, one and all
