Verse:
Dmin Fmaj
One day one woman asked him what do you to survive?
Cmaj Gmin
He said "oh my dear, listen here." and this is what I cry
Dmin Fmaj
On my feet, I wear two shoes for dancing, dancing to be free.
Cmaj Gmin
My feet they're paying tribute to the Bobby Marley Legacy
Dmin
and my knees they've got some cuts and bruises
Fmaj
from a-skating all my days
Cmaj
because a-when I'm skating with my friends
Gmin
my troubles drift away. I say
Dmin
my legs they're wearing baggy pants
Fmaj
I like ta move around
Cmaj
'Cause getting down and jumping up
Gmin
These are some good things that i've found
Chorus:
Bb Maj

Dmin Gmin Cmaj

Dmin
... and my waist has got a slinky belt
Fmaj
with a clip that's quick to open
Cmaj
because a'loving is the sweetest thing,
Gmin
and from my waist is happens
Dmin
and my stomach's got some tasty food
Fmaj
that's makin' me feel good
Cmaj
because sharing some meals is
Gmin
some thing I wish the world could do
Dmin
and my chest it wears a singlet
Fmaj
oh my chest is beating proud
Cmaj
oh my chest suggests I am a man
Gmin
that no institutions will knock round
Dmin
and around my neck is superstiton
Fmaj
hanging from a chain
Cmaj
because i've got my gods, but in the end
Gmin
I'll make my own way.

Dmin
and my mouth it's got a great big smile
Fmaj
that shows some great big teeth,
Cmaj
to friends it brings happiness
Gmin
and to enemies it brings defeat.
Dmin
and my eyes have got some vision
Fmaj
they can see through many lies
Cmaj
oh my eyes they look for better things,
Gmin
the better things to see in life
Dmin
and my ears are wearing headphones
Fmaj
they're to play my favourite songs;
Cmaj
and not music i'm told to like
Gmin
but the songs that make me dance along
Dmin
'cause on my feet are shoes for
Fmaj
shoes for dancing, dancing to be free
Cmaj
oh my feet they're paying tribute to...
Gmin
(The Bobby Marley Legacy!)
