( G  C )

G
When they came to this land
C
We gave our friendship
G
Gave them our hands
C
But it was never to be

Oh! You must bow down

They said "Fall to your knees"
  Am                    D
Oh! Diamond sun has to burn

Oh! Are we never to learn

Refrão:
G C D C              D         C
Love     gives life and life is love

                  Gm
But what have we done

G
We have walked on this earth
Cm
Since the first star was shining
        C
And the moon had its birth
G
But as with the shadows of lonely trees
C
We are in bondage

But are hearts are still free

Refrão:
 Am                      D
Still diamond sun has to burn

Oh! Are we never to learn
G C D C              D         C
Love     gives life and life is love
 Bb                C
Still diamond sun has to burn
 Dm
In my heart I believe
                        C
Someday the sun will shine
And you shall be free
      G
And bless our children as they're put to the test
C
You'll hear the heartbeat of a nation's unrest
 A                      D
Oh! Diamond sun has to burn

Oh! Are we never to learn
