Could you be loved - Bob Marley

Cm | Cm | Cm | Cm |
Eb Cm Ab Eb
Could you be loved and be loved?
Eb Cm Ab Eb
Could you be loved and be loved?
Cm Fm
Don't let them fool you
Cm Fm
or even try to school you,
Cm
Oh, no!
Cm
We've got a mind of our own
Ab Cm Fm
So go to hell if what you're thinking is not right
Cm
Love would never leave us alone.
Ab Gm Bb
In the darkness there must come out the light.
Could you be loved
and be loved?
Could you be loved
and be loved?
Cm
The road of life is rocky
and you may stumble too.
So while you point your fingers
someone else is judging you.
Could you be, could you be, could you be loved?
Could you be, could you be loved?
Could you be, could you be, could you be loved?
Could you be, could you be loved?
Don't let them change you,
or even rearrange you.
Oh, no! We've got a life to live
They say only, only,
only the fittest of the fittest shal survive, stay alive.
Could you be loved
and be loved?
Could you be loved
and be loved?
You ain't gonna miss your water
until you well runs dry.
Could you be loved

No matter how you treat him,


the man will never be satisfied.
Could you be, could you be, could you be loved?
Could you be, could you be loved?
Say something...
I shot the sheriff - Bob Marley
===============================

Gm Gm Cm Cm Gm Gm Gm Gm
I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy.
Gm Gm Cm Cm Gm Gm Gm Gm
I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy.
Eb Dm Gm Gm
All around in my home town
Eb Dm Gm Gm
they're trying to track me down.
Eb Dm Gm Gm
They say they want to bring me in guilty
Eb Dm Gm Gm
for the killing of a deputy,
Eb Dm7 Gm Gm Gm Gm Gm Gm
for the killing of a deputy. But I say:

I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in selfdefence.


I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in selfdefence.
Sheriff John Brown always hated me for what I don't know.
Ev'ry time that I plant a seed
he said "Kill it before it grow,"
he said "Kill it before it grow." But I say:

I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in selfdefence.


I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in selfdefence.
Freedom came my way one day and I started out of town.
All of a sudden I see sheriff John Brown,
aiming to shoot me down.
So I shot, I shot him down. But I say:

I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy.


I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy.
Reflexes got the better of me and what is to be must be.
Ev'ry day the bucket goes to the well,
but one day the bottom will drop out,
yes one day the bottom will drop out. But I say:

Dm Am
This could be the first trumpet,

Dm Am
Many more will have to suffer,
Dm Am
many more will have to die,
Am Am
don't ask me why.

Things are not the way they used to be, I won't tell no lie.
One and all have to face reality now.
'Tho I've tried to find the answer
to all the questions they ask.
'Tho I know it's impossible
to go living through the past,
don't tell no lie.

There's a natural mystic bloom thru' the air, can't keep them down.
If you listen carefully now you will hear.
