Intro (Chords go in 4/4 time   A-A-A-G)

Verses
A
Stolen from an Africa land, chased out with a knife
       D                          A
with a face like Bob Marley and a mouth like a motor bike
            E               F
Oh well the bars are always open,
        A
and the time is always right
             D               F
and if god's good word goes unspoken
    A
the music goes all night and it goes.. 
A
If i was Bob Marley I said could you be loved?
A
and if I was half pint I'd whoop my lord up above
    D
if I was Mike Tyson I'd look for a fight
    A
if I was a boomtown rat i would be stayin' up all night
             E                       F
if I was the King Ad-Rock I would get stoopid dumb
  A
and if rhymes were valiums I'd be comfortably numb...but numb
A
If I had a shotgun, you know what I'd do?
    D
I'd point that shit straight at the sky
          A
and shoot heaven on down for you 
            E               F
Because the bars are always open 
        A
and the time is always right 
             D             F
and if god's good work goes unspoken
    A 
the music goes all night, and it goes

VersesThe next few verses go the same as above.

I want a lover but I can't find the time
I want a reason but can't find a rhyme
I want to start some static but I can't afford 
knees slam to the ground as I fell off my skate board eh 

Now a days is clear as you please
strap with protection or struck with
disease...disease

laughter, it's free,
any time just call me, 439-0116
When your down with Sublime you get funky fresh lyrics. 

Stolen from an Africa land,
I'll chase that other bar, 
I saw my best friend tonight so don't push me too far 

Chord ChangeThe rest of the song goes C-Bb

I'm gonna run come down with the new lyrics
get hit, get hip, don't slip you knuckle heads
racism is scism on a serious tip
you don't belive me then I go on bust your lip

Higher the mountain, it hard to climb
rougher the rhythm man, it must be Sublime
listen yellow lover yet it right on time
we got cricket with the quickness and the bass
line... 

Go and raid the town, tell the people the news,
ohh, hey, tell them reggae music is on the loose. 

here I am like a ragin' storm
with a brand new style and a unique fashon. 
(sung at same time)
I am from the place where the sun keeps shinin',
shinin'

and good good vibes, that keep on playin', playin'

Them a fire one shot for peace egality
come, come thema come with a rougha stylee 
come, come thema care about you wicked stylee
come, come if ya come with your wicked diary 

Thema fire one shot-
pump pump-with a sub thema fire two shots-
pump pump-nickle shot thema fire three shots-
pump pump-nickle shot thema hear about me rock 

crazy, who I launch wear they armor be who I
launched thema attack me with they
armor me no stop counter react when me am bigger
Hear me copy tell you about
this wicked stylee

People wanna come up and they wanna tell me: smokin'
crack cocaine better than sensi.

your're puffin' that shit yo we're sick of it!
tweakin' every weekend and we just
can't take it. whoa-oh, we no wan' plastic! ba!
