[Bb] [Cm]
[Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] [F] [Bb]
Johanna, she [Eb] runs a country.
She [Bb] runs in Durban and the Deer and [F] Spar.
[Bb] She makes a few of her [Eb] people [Ebm] happy.
Oh, she [Bb] don't care about the rest at all.
She's got a system they [Eb] call apartheid.
It [Bb] keeps her brother in her [F] subjection.
But [Bb] maybe pressure will [Eb] make [Ebm] Johanna see how [Bb] everybody could live as one.
Oh, give me hope, [Eb] Johanna, hope, Johanna, [Bb] give me hope, Johanna, before the [F] morning comes.
[Bb] Give me hope, [Eb] Johanna, hope, Johanna, [Bb] hope, before [F] the [Bb] morning comes.
I hear she makes all that [Eb] gold and money to buy [Bb] new weapons and new [F] shape of guns.
[G]
While [Bb] every mother in her [Eb] blacks are wept [Ebm] of tears, [Bb] the killing of another son.
Sneaking across all the [Eb] neighbors' borders, now [Bb] and again having [F] little fun.
[Bb] She doesn't care if the [Eb] fun and games [Ebm] she play [Bb] is dangerous to everyone.
Oh, give me hope, [Eb] Johanna, give me hope, Johanna, [Bb] give me hope, Johanna, before the [F] morning comes.

[Cm] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb] [F] [Bb]
She got supporters in [Eb] higher places who [Bb] turned the heads for the [F] city's son.
[Bb] Johanna give them the [Eb] fancy money, oh, [Bb] to tempt anyone who come.
She even knows how to [Eb] swing opinion in [Bb] every magazine and [F] the journals.
[Bb] For every bad move that [Eb] is Johanna make, they [Bb] got a good explanation.
Oh, give me hope, [Eb] Johanna, give me hope, Johanna, give [Bb] me hope, Johanna, before the [F] morning comes.
[Bb] Give me hope, [Eb] Johanna, give me hope, Johanna, [Bb] hope, before the morning comes.
Give me hope, [Eb] Johanna, give me hope, Johanna, [Bb] give me hope, Johanna, [F] before the morning comes.
[Bb] Give me hope, [Eb] Johanna, give me hope, Johanna, [Bb] hope, [F] before the [Bb] morning comes.
Even the preacher who [Eb] works for Jesus, the [Bb] archbishop who's a [F] peaceful man,
[Bb] together say that the [Eb] freedom fighters will [Bb] overcome the very strong.
I wanna know if you're blind, [Eb] Johanna, if [Bb] you wanna hear the [F] sound of drum,
[Bb] can't you see that the [Ebm] tide is turning?
Oh, don't make [Bb] me wait till [Eb] the [Bb] morning comes.
Oh, give me hope, [Eb] Johanna, give me hope, Johanna, [Bb] give me hope, Johanna, before [F] the morning comes.
Give [Bb] me hope, [Eb] Johanna, give me hope, Johanna, [Bb] hope, before [F] the [Bb] morning comes.
