African Herbsman Chords & Lyrics - Bob Marley

[VERSE 1]
[G] All twinklin' [Em]lee
Can't see the [G]right rose when the streams a-[Em]bate
The [G]old slave men [Em]might grind slow
But it grinds [C]fine, yeah[G]

[CHORUS 1]
African [G]herbsman, why linger [Em]on?
Just concen[G]trate, 'cause heaven lives [Em]on
Greet-I-eth [G]slave men will look with a [Em]scorn
With a transplanted [C]heart ([D]yes, how quick they had to [G]part)[Em]
(How quick they had to [G]part)[Em]

[VERSE 2]
The re[G]membrance of to[Em]day
Is the sad [G]feelin' of to[Em]morrow
(...How [G]quick ...) [Em]Oh (... part), oh [C]yeah

[CHORUS 2]
African [G]herbsman, seize your [Em]time
I'm takin' il[G]lusion on the edge of my [Em]mind
I'm takin' [G]losers down thru my [Em]life
Down thru my [C]life, [D]yeah (yes, how quick they had to [G]part)[Em]
(How quick they had to [G]part)[Em]

[VERSE 3]
Dideh [G]part, yes, they [Em]part
The re[G]membrance of to[Em]day
(How quick they had to [G]part)[Em]

[CHORUS 3]
African [G]herbsman, why linger [Em]on?
Just concen[G]trate, 'cause your heaven lives [Em]on
Greet-I-eth [G]slave men will look with a [Em]scorn
With a transplanted [C]heart, [D]yes, how (... quick they have to [G]part)[Em]
(How quick they had to [G]part)[Em]

[VERSE 4]
In re[G]membrance of to[Em]day
Brings sad [G]feelings of to[Em]morrow
(Yes, how quick they have to ...) Lead me [C]on, oh, Lord, I pray to you

[CHORUS 2]
African [G]herbsman (African [Em]herbsman)
African [G]herbsman (African [Em]herbsman)
