I took the lyrics from a previous version on UG but the chords are taken from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMT7o0yV3fo&feature=related They play this song everyday in Angola but they play the commercial version, this the original is for connoisseurs...

But we struggling, fighting to eat, And we wondering, when we'll be free So we patiently wait, for that faithful day, It's not far away, but for now we say, [Chorus] 2x (Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh) And everybody will be singing it (Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh) And you and I will be singing it (Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh) And we all will be singing it (Ohhh Ohh Ohh Ohh) [Chorus] 2x When I get older, when I get older I will be stronger, just like a Waving Flag, Just like a Waving Flag, just like a Waving flag Flag, flag, Just like a Waving Flag
