1. I was [G] born by the river, in a little tent
Oh and, [Am7] just like that river, I've, been running, [Em] ever since
It's been a [G] long... a [Am7] long time coming, but I [C7] know, [B7] oh-oh-oh
[Em] A change is gonna come, oh, [G] yes it will

2. It's been [G] too hard living, but I'm afraid to die,
[Am7] 'Cos I don't know what's out there, [Em] beyond the sky.
It's been a [G] long... a [Am7] long time coming, but I [C7] know, [B7] oh-oh-oh,
[Em] A change is gonna come, oh, [G] yes it will.

3. I [G] go to the movie and I go downtown,
[Am7] Somebody keep telling me; don't, [Em] hang around.
It's been a [G] long... a [Am7] long time coming, but I [C7] know, [B7] oh-oh-oh,
[Em] A change is gonna come, oh, [G] yes it will

* [Am7] Then I go to my [G6] brother,
[Am7] And I say; brother, help me [Em] please
[Am7] But he winds up, [Em] knockin' me
[A9] Back down on my [D7] knees, oh

4. There been [G] times when I thought, I couldn't last for long,
[Am7] But now I think I'm able to, [Em] carry on.
It's been a [G] long... a [Am7] long time coming, but I [C7] know, [B7] oh-oh-oh,
[Em] A change is gonna come, oh, [G] yes it will
