Band – A Change Is Gonna Come lyrics
F F7
I was born by the river in a little tent
Bb Dm C
And just like that river I've been running ever since
F Bb
It's been a long time coming
A Dm Bb C F
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

Bridge:
Gm Dm
And then I go to see my brother
Gm Dm
And I ask him to help me please
Gm Dm
And he just winds up knockin' me
G C C7
Back down on my knees

There were times when 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

Repeat verse 2
