Artist: Willie Nelson
[VERSE 1]
Well they [G#]tell me of a pie up in the sky
[F#]Waiting for me when I die
But be[G#]tween the day you're born and when you die
They [F#]never seem to hear even your cry
[CHORUS]
So as [F]sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna [A#m]get my share now of what's mine
And the [G#]harder they come, the [F#]harder they'll fall,
One and [C#]all
Ooh the [G#]harder they come the [F#]harder they'll fall,
One and [C#]all
[VERSE 2]
Well the [G#]officers are trying to keep me down
[F#]Trying to drive me underground
And they [G#]think that they have got the battle won
I say [F#]forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done
[CHORUS]
'Cause as [F]sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna [A#m]get my share now of what's mine
And the [G#]harder they come, the [F#]harder they'll fall,
One and [C#]all
Ooh the [G#]harder they come the [F#]harder they'll fall,
One and [C#]all
[G#]Oooh [F#]Oooh [C#]Oooh
[VERSE 3]
I keep on [G#]fighting for the things I want
Though I [F#]know that when you're dead you can't
But I'd [G#]rather be a free man in my grave
Than l[F#]iving as a puppet or a slave
[CHORUS]
So as [F]sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna [A#m]get my share now of what's mine
And then [G#]the harder they come, the [F#]harder they'll fall,
One and [C#]all
Ooh the [G#]harder they come the [F#]harder they'll fall,
One and [C#]all
And the [G#]harder they come, the [F#]harder they'll fall,
One and [C#]all
