Music happen to be the food of love,
Sounds to really make you rub and scrub.

On the [Dm7]left hand side,

Make me [Dm7]jump and prance,
It a go [Cmaj7]done,
Give me the music,
Make me [Dm7]rock in the dance.
Verse 1:
It was a [Cmaj7]cool and lovely,
[Dm7] Breezy after-[Cmaj7]noon.[Dm7]

So I [Cmaj7]left my gate,

(How does it feel,

'Cos the [Cmaj7]spirit of Jah,
You [Dm7]know he leads you [Cmaj7]on.
(How does it feel,
When you've [Dm7]got no food?)
[Dm7] There was a [Cmaj7]ring of dreads,
And a [Dm7]session was there in [Cmaj7]swing.
(How does it feel,
When you've [Dm7]got no food?)
You could [Cmaj7]feel the chill,
As I [Dm7]seen and heard them [Cmaj7]say;
