Album - International Chantuelle
Chords by : Juscoolfella - Daryll Kyle
Once upon a time there was a magic island
Full of magic people.
Let me tell you a story
'Bout their pain and their glory, oh yeah.
A E
Many rivers flowed to this naked isle
D
Bringing fear and pain
A
But also a brand new style.
A E
And of all these rivers that shaped this land
D A
Two mighty ones move like a sculptors hand.
G D A
And today those hands, across the land, man, they're still landscaping.
G D A
And there's no doubt we go work it out, there is no escaping.
G D A
As the river flows there are those who would change its passage.
G D E
But every common man got to under-stand up and send a message.
E D A E
So put up your hand if you understand now.
Come.
A E
See how we moving, watch how we grooving
F#m D
See how we step in style.
A E
One lovely nation, under a groove
D E A
The Ganges done meet the Nile.
A E
Them boys with the hidden agendas, and the mind-benders,
F#m D
People done take in front.
A E D E A
Various smart men, and politicians can come along if they want.

The Ganges has met the Nile
Differences, there will always be.
So let you be you, and I'll be me.
That's the damn ting self that makes it sweet.
Brother bring your drum, lewwe start to beat.
(David Rudder Lyrics - Ganges and the Nile Lyrics)
Don't mind them politicky politicky politicky politicky politicians.
And with their politricky politricky politricky politricky situations.
We done jamming and we jamming and we jamming and jam cus we know the story.
Let them fight if they want in this land of the differed glory.
So put up your hand if you understand now

See how we moving, watch how we grooving
See how we step in style.
One lovely nation, under a groove
The Ganges done meet the Nile.
