  A                    F#m 
  Buffalo Soldier,Dreadlock Rasta, 
                    A 
  There was a Buffalo Soldier, 
           F#m 
  In the heart of America 
  A                         F#m

Verse 1 
                D         C#m           D         
  I mean it, when I analyse the stench, 
C#m7       Bm7      F#m 
  To me it makes a lot of sense 
D             C#m         D       
  How the Dreadlock Rasta 
C#m7      Bm7     F#m 
  Was the Buffalo Soldier

  A                          F#m 
  Fighting on arrival,fighting for survival 
                      A                     F#m 
  Said he was a Buffalo Soldier,Dreadlock Rasta 
  A                             F#m 
  Buffalo Soldier,in the heart of America 

Verse 2 
D         C#m          D            
  If you know your history  
C#m7                 Bm7                    F#m 
  Then you would know where your coming from 
D              C#m                  D          
  Then you wouldnt have to ask me_ 
C#m7      Bm7         F#m 
  Who the heck do I think I am
