You'll want a capo on fret 3 for this song for the original key.  
Listen to the song on Youtube for strum patterns and timings.  
I tend to use A and A7 chords interchangeably for whatever strikes my ear as the 
best at the time. 

Intro:| D |(4x)

                Em    A                D
One day, little girl, the sadness will leave your face
                  Em  A                 D
As soon as you've won your fight to get justice done

                  Em    A                  D
Some days, little girl, you'll wonder what life's about
                Em     A               D
But others have known, few battles are won alone

                G
So you'll look around to find someone who's kind
                            C
someone who's fearless like you
                                                        A
The pain of it will ease a bit when you find a man with True Grit

                 Em   A             D
One day you will rise and you won't believe your eyes
                   Em   A               D
You'll wake up and see, a world that is fine and free.

                    C    D
Though summer seems far away
                C       D
You'll find the sun one day

Instrumental:

| Em | A | D | D | Em | A | D | D |

                    C    D
Though summer seems far away
                C       D
You'll find the sun one day
