I took the lyrics from a previous version on UG but the chords are taken from http://www.youtube.com/watch'v=RMT7o0yV3fo&feature=related They play this song everyday in Angola but they play the commercial version, this the original is for connoisseurs... WAVING FLAG - K'Naan
CWhen I get older, I wiFll be stronger, AmThey'll call me freedom, juGst like a Wavin' FClag
CBorn to a throne, sGtronger than Rome Ama Violent prone, poGor people zone, FBut it's my home, Emall I have known, Dm Dm G Where I got grown, streets we would roam. CBut out of the darkness, GI came the farthest, AmAmong the hardest sGurvival. FLearn from these streets, Emit can be bleak, DmExcept no defeat, Gsurrender retreat,
C G So we struggling, fighting to eat and Am G We wondering when we'll be free, F Em So we patiently wait, for that fateful day, Dm G It's not far away, so for now we say [Chorus]
CWhen I get older, FI will be stronger, AmThey'll call me freedom, Gjust like a Wavin' flag CAnd then it goes back, aFnd then it goes back, AmAnd then it goes Gback oh oh oh
(interlude) C C G G So many wars, settling scores, Bringing us promises, leaving us poor, I heard them say, love is the way, Love is the answer, that's what they say, But look how they treat us, Make us believers, We fight their battles, then they deceive us, Try to control us, they couldn't hold us, Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers. But we struggling, fighting to eat, And we wondering, when we'll be free So we patiently wait, for that faithful day, It's not far away, but for now we say, [Chorus] 2x (Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh) And everybody will be singing it (Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh) And you and I will be singing it (Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh) And we all will be singing it (Ohhh Ohh Ohh Ohh) [Chorus] 2x When I get older, when I get older I will be stronger, just like a Waving Flag, Just like a Waving Flag, just like a Waving flag Flag, flag, Just like a Waving Flag
