Oooeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehh!

D
You’re a good soldier,
A
Choosing your battles.
Bm
Pick yourself up
                  G
And dust yourself off
And back in the saddle.

D
You’re on the front line,
A
Everyone’s watching.
Bm
You know it’s serious.
              G
We’re getting closer,
This isn’t over.

 D                 A
   The pressure’s on, you feel it.
 Bm                  G
   But you’ve got it all, believe it.
   D
   When you fall, get up. Oh, oh.
       A
   And if you fall, get up. Eh, eh.

Chorus:
     Bm
     Tsamina mina sangalewa.
     ’Cause this is Africa.
     D
     Tsamina mina, eh, eh.
     A
     Waka waka, eh, eh.
     Bm
     Tsamina mina sangalewa.
     This time for Africa.

Instrumental: D | A | Bm | G  } 2 times

Listen to your God,
This is our motto.
Your time to shine,
Don’t wait in line.
Y vamos por todo.

People are raising
Their expectations.
Go on and feed them,
This is your moment,
No hesitation.

   Today’s your day I feel it.
   You paved the way, believe it.
   If you get down, get up. Oh, oh.
   When you get down, get up. Eh, eh.

Chorus:
     Tsamina mina sangalewa.
     This time for Africa.
     Tsamina mina, eh, eh.
     Waka waka, eh, eh.
