[Intro]
 
|Cm  Bb  Gm  Eb| Gm Cm  Bb| Cm
                          Ya too rude!
 
|Cm  Bb  Gm  Eb| Cm  Bb| Cm
 
[Chorus 1]
 
Cm              Bb                   Cm
 Oh, what a rat race, oh, what a rat race!
               Bb                    Cm
Oh, what a rat race; this is the rat race! Rat race! (Rat race!)
 
[Verse 1]
 
       Bb
Some a lawful, some a bastard, some a jacket:
               Cm
Oh, what a rat race, yeah, rat race!
       Bb
Some a gorgon-a, some a hooligan-a, some a guine-gog-a,
                 Cm
In this 'ere rat race, rat race! I'm singin' that:
 
[Verse 2]
 
Bb
 When the cat's away; the mice will play.
Cm
 Political voilence, fill ya city, ye-ah!
Bb
 Don't involve Rasta in your say say;
Cm
 Rasta don't work for no, C.I.A.
 
[Chorus 2]
 
    Bb                  Cm
Rat race, rat race, rat race, rat race! I'm sayin';
 
[Verse 3]
 
Bb
 When you think, is peace and safety; a sudden destruction.
Cm
 Collective security, for surety, ye-ah!
Bb
 Don't forget your history, know your destiny;
         Cm
In the a-bundance of water, the fool is thirsty.
 
[Chorus 3]
 
    Bb                  Cm
Rat race, rat race, rat race, rat race,
               Bb                                    Cm
Oh, it's a dis-grace to see the human-race, in a rat race, rat race!
 
Coda:
 
            Bb
You got the horse race; you got the dog race;
                                          Cm
You got the human-race; but this is a rat race, rat race!
