G Am7
I was born by the river in a little tent
Em
And just like that river I've been running ever since
G Am7
It's been a long a long time coming
C Bm7 Em G
But I know a change is gonna come oh yes it will

It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die
Cos I don't know what's out there beyond the sky
It's been a long a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come oh yes it will

I go to the movies and I go downtown
Sombody keep telling don't hang around
It's been a long a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come oh yes it will

BRIDGE:
Am7 G
And then I go to see my brother
Am7 G
And I ask him to help me please
Am7 Em
But he winds up knockin' me
A7 D
Back down on my knees

There've been times I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long been a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come oh yes it will
