Manifest Destiny
****************
Band: Jamiroquai
Tabbed By: Kevin Crimi
Hey Funksters! I, like a lot of other people love the bass line on this track but us guitar players gotta have some fun too. Like always, I‘ve added the first verse and chorus lyrics to show the chord changes. At the end of the song the chord progression switches from the verse chords to the ending chords. I hope you enjoy it and if you catch any mistakes, have a question, or just want to talk about Jamiroquai with me you can E-mail me at [email protected]. I’d love to hear anything you’ve got to say.

Bmin7 A#dim7
But if they had been told that day that they would be sold
Emin9 GMaj7 A#dim7
this way to satisfy the souls of chosen men.
Bmin7 A#dim7
See I had to look carefully at the shame of my ancestry to
Emin9 GMaj7 A#dim7
redefine the storyline again

If I was taken for a day and shown another way.

Now every child can learn a different thing.
Amin7 Gmin7
See, I tried a millin times, but I had to change my mind.
Cmin7 DbMaj9
Sadness was the best thing I could bring.
Amin7 Gmin7
On the inside he was dead and this is what he said,
Cmin7 DbMaj9
as he took away the blue above the clouds.

so destiny will manifest in time.
