G5                                      A5
I was born by a river in a little tent
                         E5
And just like this river     I've been running ever since
             G5                 A5
It's been a too long, too long time a coming.
       C5                  E5                G5
But I know a change gonna come, oh, yes, it is

G5                                               A5
It's been too hard living and I'm afraid to die
                             E5
I don't know what's up there    beyond the sky
            G5                        A5
It's been a long time, a long time a coming
                                                                                   
C5                           E5                      G5  A5
But I know, Lord, I know a change gonna come, Lord  Yeah, yes
                         E5                A5
And then I went to see my brother, oh yeah
                                                                                         
               E5                        A5
I said, "Brother, help me, please", he turned me down

                 E5                               A5
And then I went,    I went to see my sweet mother
                                    D5
I said, "Mama, mama I'm down on my knees"

           G5                                    A5
It's been too hard living and I'm afraid to die
                             E5
I don't know what's up there    beyond the sky
             G5                A5
It's been a long, long time a coming
       C5                 E5                      G5
But I know, but I know a change gonna come, oh, long
