G G                                Am7 Am7
I was born by the river in a little tent
Em Em
And just like that river I've been running ever since
G G Am7 Am7
It's been a long a long time coming
C C Bm7 Bm7 Em Em G 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 Am7 G G
And then I go to see my brother
Am7 Am7 G G
And I ask him to help me please
Am7 Am7 Em Em
But he winds up knockin' me
A7 A7 D 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
