All of these are best played either with single notes or with their 5th, playing only two strings.
[Chorus]
Eb
Should I close my eyes and prophesize
Eb
Hoping maybe some day come
Eb
Should I wet the ground with my own tears
Eb
Crying over what's been done
Eb
Should I lift the dirt and plant the seed
Eb
Even though I'll never grow
Eb
Should I wet the ground with the sweat from my brow
Eb
And believe in my good work
Eb F# Ab
My good work
Ab Bb B
My good work
B C# Eb
My good work
[Verse 1]
Eb
Hey there, I'm flying up above
Eb
Looking down on the tired earth
Eb
And I can see, I can see potential
Ab
Speaking through you, speaking to you
Eb
From all of heaven's possibilities
[Verse 2]
Eb
Power, hey do you know how it works
Eb
Hey do you know that the meek,
Eb
They shall inherit the earth
Ab
You should work, you should work
Eb
Yeah, for the self and the family.
[Chorus]
Eb
Should I hit the water or stay on dry land
Eb
Even though I've never swam
Eb
Take machete into the brush
Eb
Though at first there is no path
Eb
Taste the war paint on my tongue
Eb
As it's dripping with my sweat
Eb
Place my gaze in the future's path
Eb
Seeing things that ain't come yet
Ab C#
Eb
Hope to watch the victory dance
Eb
After whole day's work is done
Eb
Hope to watch the victory dance
Eb
In the evening's setting sun
Ab C#
Eb
Hope to watch the victory dance
Eb
Over many lives to come
Eb
Hope to watch the victory dance
Eb
In the evening's setting sun
Eb F# Ab
Setting sun
Ab Bb B
Setting sun
B C# Eb
Setting sun
Eb
Hope to dance the victory dance
Ab C#
After whole day's work is done
Eb
Hope to dance the victory dance
Ab C#
In the evening's setting sun
Eb
Hope to dance the victory dance
Ab C#
Over many lives to come
Eb
Hope to dance the victory dance
Ab C#
In the evening's setting sun
Eb
