+8 +8 +8 +8 -8 +8 -7 -8 +7
In the government yard in trenchtown,

O-ba – ob-a-serv-ing the hy-po-crites
+6 +7 -8 +8 +8 +8 +8 +8 -9 +8 -8 +7
As they would mingle with the good people we meet.
+8 +9 +9 +9 +8 +7 +9 +9 +8 +7 -6
Good friends we ha–d, oh, good friends weve los-t

And then georgie would make the fi-re light,
+6 +7 -8 +8 +8 -9 -9 -9 +8 -8 +7
As it was logwood burnin through the night
+8 +8 +9 +9 +8 -10 +9 +8
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge,
+7 +8 +7 -8 +7 +8 +7
Of which Ill share with you; Ooh!!
+8 +9 +8 -9 +8+8 +9 -9
My feet is my only carriage,
+8 -8 +8 +9 +8 +8 +7
So Ive got to push on through.
+6 +7 -8 +8 +7 -8
But while Im gone, I mean:
+7 +7 +7 -6 +6 +7 +7 -3
Everythings gonna be all right!

Lyrics
No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Oba observing the ‘ypocrites
Mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have, oh, good friends we’ve lost
Along the way
In this great future, you can’t forget your past
So dry your tears, I seh
No, woman, no cry
‘Ere, little darlin’, don’t shed no tears
No, woman, no cry
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights, I seh
A log wood burnin’ through the night
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge, I seh
Of which I’ll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
And so I’ve got to push on through
But while I’m gone
Everything’s gonna be all right
Everything’s gonna be all right
Everything’s gonna be all right
Everything’s gonna be all right
Everything’s gonna be all right
Everything’s gonna be all right
Everything’s gonna be all right
No woman, no cry
I say, oh little oh little darling, don’t shed no tears
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry, one more time I’ve got to say
Oh little little darling, please don’t shed no tears
No woman, no cry
