[Verse 1]
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
He’s had bicycles and sons
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
He’s had salted fish and dark rum
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
Now his days are almost done
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
In the Lagos slums

[Verse 2]
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
He was a farmer for a while
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
Growin’ plantains by the coastline
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
And some said he had a smile
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
Like a movie star

[Chorus]
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
La ah
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
La ah, ah ah
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
La ah
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
La ah, ah ah

[Verse 3]
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
Met his wife one Friday night
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
At a dance hall near the train tracks
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
And his heart soared like a kite
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
In the evening light

[Verse 4]
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
Worked the oil fields once
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
Saved some money for his family
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
Built a house near Eden’s Point
Em Cmaj7 Bm7
Where they raised their boys
