Hey I just remembered i figured this out in 6th grade. Im in 10th grade now. But
yeah i just remembered and theres not a tab for this song online. so here it is. A
beautiful song. Just some background info, in 6th grade we had a fundraiser dinner
at school, and we were learning about racial discrimination. So i decided to learn
this song and had some classmates sing it. we also played Hey There Delilah and i
played a classical song on my guitar. And as always, I love you Jeannette<3 hope you do too
Song: Birmingham Sunday
Artist: Joan Baez
Tabber: 49erhometown
Oh btw Capo on 2nd fret and then play the chords. Part of the song goes to
arpeggio, which is just straight down from 6th to 1st string
E A
Come round by my side & I'll sing you a song
E D E
I'll sing it so softly it'll do no one wrong
E E
On Birmingham Sunday the blood ran like wine
D E
And the choirs kept singing of freedom
E A
That cold autumn morning no eyes saw the sun
E D B7
And Addie Mae Collins, her number was "one"
E B7 E
At an old baptist church there was no need to run
D E
And the choirs kept singing of freedom
E A
The clouds they were grey and the autumn winds blew
E D B7
And Denise McNair brought the number to "two"
E B7 E
The falcon of death was the creature they knew
D E
And the choirs kept singing of freedom
E A
The church it was crowded, but no one could see
E D B7
That Cynthia Wesley's dark number was "three"
E B7 E
Her prayers and her feeling would shame you and me
D E
And the choirs kept singing of freedom
E A
Young Carol Robertson entered the door
E D B7
And the number her killers had given was "four"
E B7 E
She asked for a blessing but asked for no more
D E
And the choirs kept singing of freedom
E A
On Birmingham Sunday a noise shook the ground
E D B7
And the people all over earth turned around
E B7 E
For no on recalled a more cowardly sound
D E
And the choirs kept singing of freedom
E A
The men in the forest they once asked of me
E D B7
How many blackberries grow in the blue sea
E B7 E
And i asked them right back with a tear in my eye
D E
How many dark ships in the forest?
E A
The Sunday has come and the Sunday has gone
E D B7
And I can't do much more than to sing you a song
E B7 E
I'll sing it so softly it'll do no one wrong
D E
And the choirs kept singing of freedom
And thats it! Very easy. GO grab a girl and have her sing this with you on guitar.
