UB40 are a British reggae/pop band formed in 1978 in Birmingham. They have proven the power of pop-influenced reggae music. The band has placed more than 50 singles in the UK Singles Chart and has also achieved considerable international success. One of the world's best-selling music artists,UB40 have sold over 70 million records. The band is named from the paper form issued by the UK government's Department of Health and Social Security at the time of the band's formation for claiming unemployment benefit (UB40 = Unemployment Benefit, Form 40). The early albums from 1981 are simply dreadful, but starting with 1983's cover Of Neil Diamond's Red Red Wine they became best-sellers. More albums from UB40:  Geffery Morgan and Rat In The Kitchen. After a long hiatus, the band returned with Promises And Lies, an equally mediocre album, and an equally successful cover of an old Elvis Presley hit, Can't Help Falling In Love. UB40 have made a name for themselves as one of the most successful reggae acts in history. Stay with the my blog, check out: Guitar chords: The Blues Brothers.

Intro: G F C F G (5x)

G    F                    C                       F         G
The great flood of tears that we've cried
G         F                   C                     F        G
For our brothers and sisters who've died
G     F                    C                           F              G
Over four hundred years has washed away our fears
          F                        C                     F                   G     F C F
And strengthened our pride now we turn back the tide
G F C F…
We will no longer hear your command
We will seize the control from your hand
We will fan the flame of our anger and pain
And you'll feel the shame for what you do in gods name
G          F                   C                F
We will fight for the right to be free
         G         F                C      F
And we will build our own society
         G             F                  C                    F            G         F       C  F
And we -- will sing, we will sing, we will sing our own song
G F C F…
When the ancient drum rhythms ring,
The voice of our forefathers sing
Forward Africa run, our day of freedom has come
For me and for you, Amandla Awethu
G F C F…
We will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we -- will sing, we will sing, we will sing our own song
(5x)
