As I couldn't find the sequence anywhere, I tried to tab it out. You let me know 
in the comments what you think.
Intro is only:  Cmwith delay
Verse come into in a 4/4 tempo with classic reggae beat in 2 and 4.
 Cm-  Ab(two bars for each chord - strum 4 times)
CmWell now the youth man say, 
                                                    Ab   Cm- Ab  
"I have come a long way, between this Earth and Zion" 
CmAnd then the warrior say, 
                                                      Ab   Cm-      Ab  
"I too have made my way as I roll upon this rod of iron" 
Cm (... and so on)
Now dem man go and they shall live up 
But we shall stay to face this dragon war 
And dem man go and dem man live up 
But we shall stay to face this dragon war 
For the Book does say, 
Like the sand of the sea shores we shall lie 
& the book does say the time shall come when I & I will testify 
FmBorn out of dGme masses, Bbcast us into thAbe heart of Babylon 
Run upon a Mount Sinai, oh Most High come make it so
       *You get the feeling. On this part you only go one bar for each chord (strum twice)
CmJah Jah, I know, know a savior, Aba sit upon a old rock log 
Jah Jah, I know, know a savior, a coming from the tribe of Judah 
Jah Jah, I know, know a savior, lie beyond a Wailing Wall 
Jah Jah, I know, know a savior, Coming from a dis a heart of dragon war
       *Now the break, anything in Cm blues scale sounds all right. Mess around with it.
Cm-Ab  
Well now the youth man say, 
"Yes, I have come a long way, between this Earth and Zion" 
And then the warrior say, 
"I too have made my way as I rule upon this rod of iron" 
Now dem man go and they shall live up 
But we shall stay to face this dragon war 
And they shall go and dem man live up 
But we shall stay to face this dragon war 
Hollow de, hollow de, hollow their hearts 
Hollow de, hollow de, hollow their words 
No we'll never hear dem barking 
 Fm-  Gm-  Bb- Ab  
Coming to dem I say, take them away to Israel 
Ya call upon a Mont Sinai, oh Most High come make it so 
 Cm- Ab  
Jah Jah know, know a savior -- a coming from a true lamb Lord 
Jah Jah I know, know a savior -- trotted from the tribe if Judah 
Jah Jah I know, know a savior -- lie beyond a Wailing Wall 
Jah Jah I know, know, know, know 
Man & Man & Man & Man dem 
Fighting, Jah-Jah, oh Lord could a, could a, I & I a 
Fighting, Jah-Jah, dis a wailin' on the wall, wailin' on the wall 
Fighting dis a dragon war dem a 
Savior to the son, a savior to the son now dis a 
Man shall go shall linger, & dis a man shall go shall stumble 
Dis a man shall go shall linger, dis a man shall go shall stumble 
Oh riding! They fighting so, they rock my soul 
De youth de man fighting, oh Jah, now dem a, oh man a 
Don't stand there waiting you're the one (repeat)
