Gimme Hope Jo'anna - Eddy Grant
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: HEMA90
E-mail: [email protected]
Tuning: standard (eBGDAE)
CAPO 1st fret
The other version is pretty much spot on, but stops halfway through, so I made
this one. Chords marked with a dot (.) are for half a bar only.
Intro: A D A E | A D A. E. A
A D
Well Jo'anna she runs a country
A E
She runs in Durban and the Transvaal
A D
She makes a few of her people happy, oh
A. E. A
She don't care about the rest at all
A D
She's got a system they call apartheid
A E
It keeps a brother in a subjection
A D
But maybe pressure will make Jo'anna see
A. E. A
How everybody could a live as one
[chorus:]
A D
Gimme hope, Jo'anna; Hope, Jo'anna
A E
Gimme hope, Jo'anna; 'Fore the morning come
A D
Gimme hope, Jo'anna; Hope, Jo'anna
A. E. A
Hope before the morning come
A D
I hear she makes all the golden money
A E
To buy new weapons, any shape of guns
A D
While every mother in a black Soweto fears
A. E. A
The killing of another son
A D
Sneakin' across all the neighbours' borders
A E
Now and again having little fun
A D
She doesn't care if the fun and games she play
A. E. A
Is dang'rous to ev'ryone
[chorus]
[interlude: repeat intro]
A D
She's got supporters in high up places
A E
Who turn their heads to the city sun
A D
Jo'anna give them the fancy money
A. E. A
Oh to tempt anyone who'd come
A D
She even knows how to swing opinion
A E
In every magazine and the journals
A D
For every bad move that this Jo'anna make -
A. E. A
They got a good explana-tion
[chorus]
A D
Even the preacher who works for Jesus
A E
The Archbishop who's a peaceful man
A D
Together say that the freedom fighters
A. E. A
Will overcome the very strong
A D
I wanna know if you're blind Jo'anna
A E
If you wanna hear the sound of drums
A D
Can't you see that the tide is turning -
A. E. A
Oh don't make me wait till the morning come
[chorus x2]
