FUGEES - "no woman no cry" Tablature
Official FUGEES Tablature & Sheet Music »
Here are the lyrics to The Fugees' cover of Bob Marley's
"No Woman, No Cry":
A dedication to all the refugees worldwide, one time
Say, say, say
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Brooklyn.
Observing the crookedness
As it mingled with the good people we meet.
Good friends we had, good friends we've lost
Along the way.
In this great future you can't forget your past,
So dry your tears, I say,
And to my peeps who passed away
CHORUS:
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Hey, little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Say, say, say
I remember when we used to rock
In a project yard in Jersey.
And little Georgie would make a firelight
As stolen cars passed through the night.
And then we'd hit the corner store
For Roots, paper, and brew.
My drinks, my only remedy
For pain of losing family.
But while I'm gone, shorty
Everything is gonna be alright,
Everything is gonna be alright.
Fugees come to the dance tonight,
Everything is gonna be alright.
Everything is gonna be alright,
Everything is gonna be alright.
The gunman's in the house tonight,
But everything is gonna be alright.
Oh ah, oh ah. (x8)
CHORUS
Say, say, say
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown.
Observing the hypocrites
As they mingle with the good people we meet.
Good friends we had, good friends we've lost
Along the way. (hey)
In this great future you can't forget your past,
So dry your tears, I say. And...
CHORUS
To my peeps who passed away
Oh ah, oh ah.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official FUGEES tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
