Intro:
Gm,
B7 Am (x8)
Verse 1:
[B7] Prediction, prediction [Am]foretold.
[B7] Prediction, yeh, from the [Am]days of old.
[B7] Prediction, yeh, from [Am]way back when,
The years Jah send, years Jah send.
[B7] Prediction, a long, long [Am]time ago.
Verse 2:
Se-[B7]lassie was neglected; [Am]tell me when?
Like the [B7]tales of The Messiah, yah, all [Am]over again.
[B7] Garvey was rejected; [Am]tell me when?
Unlike the [B7]Baptist he has kept his head, I said [Am]vank!
William [B7]Gordon and Paul Bogle led a rebellion,
'Cos they used their heads,[Am] but had their necks in a noose.
Martyrs of [B7]freedom, freedom condemned,
But [Am]Jah Jah cut them loose, heh heh.
Verse 3:
[B7] Prophesised that, [Am]we would suffer by,
[B7] Those who think themselves su-[Am]perior to our colour, yes sah;
[B7] Descendants of,[Am] Naiman the Leper.
Ask E[B7]lisha, offspring's of,[Am] Naiman the Leper.
Chorus 1:
If a [F#m]lie, ask Elisha, ask Elisha,
If a [Abm]lie, ask Elisha, ask Elisha.
If a [F#m]lie, ask Elisha, ask Elisha,
If a [Abm]lie, ask Elisha, ask Elisha.
If a [F#m]lie, ask Elisha, ask Elisha,
If a [Abm]lie, ask Elisha, ask Elisha.
Chorus 2:
To-[F#m]morrow's what we're on about,
To-morrow's what we're on about; not [Abm]yesterday.
To-[F#m]morrow's what we're on about,
To-morrow's what we're on about; not [Abm]yesterday.
It's [F#m]up to man to understand, to have success upon this land;
He better [Abm]have some faith.
Break:
[F#m] Have some faith,[Abm] have some faith.
[F#m] Have some faith,[Abm] have some faith.
[F#m] Have... [Abm]some.
[F#m] Have, some... [Abm]faith.
[F#m] Have... [Abm]some.
[F#m] Have, some... [Abm]faith.

(Spoken):
[F#m] The impossible,[Abm] have a habit of happening.
[F#m] If you think a lie, I a-tell;

[Abm] Ask Elisha,[F#m] ask Elisha,
[Abm] Ask Elisha,[F#m] ask Elisha.
