There was a Buffalo Soldier in the heart of America

                    F#m         D    A
Stolen from Africa, brought to America

                     F#m             D  A
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
[Verse 1]

I mean it, when I analyze the stench

A/C#     Bm      F#m
To me it makes a lot of sense

Said he was a Buffalo Soldier, Dreadlock Rasta

Buffalo Soldier in the heart of America
[Verse 2]
D      C#m       D       C#m
If you know your history

A/C#           Bm                F#m
Then you would know where you're coming from

D        C#m              D      C#m
Then you wouldn't have to ask me

A/C#    Bm        F#m
Who the heck do I think I am
{Chorus]
           A                      F#m       D   A
I'm just a Buffalo Soldier in the heart of America
