I wish I could speak your language as good as you seem to be able to speak mine, but
These are the three chords
C…A minor…F
3 chords for People Get Ready
That’s all you need
You don’t need to speak Japanese, Italian, or even English
Just those 3 chords
People get ready there’s a train a’coming
Picking up passengers coast to coast
Faith is the key, it opens doors and borders
You don’t need no ticket you just get on board
Yeah
There is still hope for the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own
God have mercy, I’m a hopeless guitar player
But I know there’s a higher place behind the kingdom’s throne, I say
People get ready there’s a train a’coming
Picking up passengers coast to coast
Faith is the key, it opens doors and borders
You don’t need no ticket, you just get on board, woh
Boogaloo…Mel, Walter, Tony, B. B. King’s orchestra, I can tell ya
Anyone wanna join the band?
Somebody wanna play my guitar?
Wanna play? C’mon
(Spanish phrase)??
Let me just tell ya something, don’t touch our fucking audience
Leave them be, alright? And just leave them
Wanna play guitar?
People get ready there’s a train a’coming
Picking up passengers coast to coast
Faith is the key, if you wanna play rock ‘n’ roll guitar
You don’t need no ticket, you just get on board
People get ready there’s a train a’coming
Picking up passengers coast to coast
Faith is the key, if you wanna play rock ‘n’ roll guitar
You don’t need no ticket, you just get on board
You’re not supposed to be better than me, alright?
I'll get the Spanish bit shortly...
Edit: Oh well, I've been told by a Spanish speaker it isn't Spanish. Maybe Italian? I don't know any Japanese...
