Verse 1
Cm
When the white man first came
Bb
Cm
here from over the sea
Eb
He looked and he said, this is
G
God's own country
Cm
Eb
He was mighty well pleased with
Ab
this land that he found
Cm
Bb
And he said, I will make here
Cm
my own piece of ground.
Bb
Now the land was inhab ited,
Cm
so I've heard say,
Eb
By little men who painted on
G
the rock face by day.
Cm
Eb
They stuck to their land,
Ab
so he shot them all down,
Cm
Bb
Left them to rot on
Cm
their own piece of ground
Bb
Well, many's the battle that
Cm
he still had to fight
Eb
Many was the fam ily that
G
died in the night
Cm
Eb
Cause many were the black men
Ab
that lived all around
Cm
Bb
And all of them wanting
Cm
their own piece of ground
Bb
So northwards he trekked and
Cm
northwards he rode
Eb
Over felt and tough coun
G
tryside onwards he strode
In the
Cm
Free
Eb
State and the
Ab
Transvaal his oxen out spent
Cm
Bb
And he planted the seed in his own piece of
Cm

land
Bb
Then one fine day in 1883
Cm
Eb
G
Gold was dis covered in good quant ity
Cm
Eb
The country was rich,
Ab
much richer than planned
Cm
Bb
And each digger wanted
Cm
his own piece of land
Bb
Now the diggers were few and
Cm
the gold was so deep
Eb
That the black man was called
G
because his labor was cheap
Cm
Eb
With drill and with shovel he
Ab
toiled under ground
Cm
Bb
Cm
Ab
Four pence a day for ten tons of ground
G
Cm
Now this land is so rich and it
Bb
seem s strange to me
Cm
Eb
That the black man whose la
G
bour has helped it to be
Cm
Eb
Can not enjoy the fruits that abound
Ab
Cm
He's uprooted and
Bb
kicked from his own piece
Cm
Bb
Cm
Ab
of ground
G
Cm
Well, some people say,
Bb
Cm
now don't you worry
We've kept you a nice piece
of reserved territory
G
Cm
Eb
But how can a life for so many be found
Ab
Cm
On a miserable thirteen
Bb
Cm
Bb
Ab
percent of the ground?
G
Cm
Yeah, some people say,
now don't you worry
You can always find jobs
in the white man's
G
city
Cm
Eb
But don't stay too long,
Ab
don't stay too deep
Cm
Or you're bound to disturb the
Bb
Cm
Ab
G
white man in his sleep
Cm
Bb
White man, don't sleep long,
Cm
don't sleep too deep
Eb
Or your life and your pos sessions,
G
how long will you keep?
Cm
Eb
For I've heard rumors running around
Ab
Cm
That the black man's de
Bb
Cm
manding his own piece of ground
