        Em             D


        G6          C9      


        Em             D




        G6          C9
          Don't you know

        Em             D
They're talkin' bout a revolution

        G6          C9      
                 It sounds

        Em             D
 like a whisper



        G6          C9
          Don't you know

        Em             D
They're talkin' bout a revolution

        G6          C9      
                 It sounds

        Em             D
 like a whisper          While they're 



         G6               C9 
          standing in the welfare lines

        Em             D

        G6              C9
          Crying at the doorsteps of those

        Em      D
   armies of salvation



        G6         C9        
           Wasting time

        Em           D
 in the unemployment lines

        G6         C9
          Sitting around

        Em               D
        waiting for a promotion



        G6          C9
          Don't you know

        Em             D
They're talkin' bout a revolution

        G6          C9      
                 It sounds

        Em             D
 like a whisper



        G6                   C9
           Poor people gonna rise up

        Em             D
                   And get their share

        G6             C9

        
        Em             D




        G6                   C9
           Poor people gonna rise up

        Em             D
                   And take what's theirs

      
        G6             C9
