G+G G7G7
I was born by the river in a little tent
A minorAm E minorEm
And just like that river I've been running ever since
G+G Am7Am7
It's been a long a long time coming
C majorC B7B7 E minorEm G+G
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
G+G G7G7
It's been too hard living, but I'm afraid to die
A minorAm E minorEm
Cause I don't know what's out there beyond the sky
G+G A minorAm
It's been a long, a long time coming
C majorC B7B7 E minorEm G+G
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
G+G G7G7
I go to the movies, and I go downtown,
A minorAm E minorEm
Somebody keep telling don't hang around,
G+G A minorAm
It's been a long, a long time coming
C majorC B7B7 E minorEm G+G
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
A minorAm G+G
And then I go to see my brother
A minorAm G+G
And I ask him to help me please
A minorAm E minorEm
But he winds up knockin' me
A7A7 D MajorD
Back down on my knees
G+G G7G7
There've been times I thought I couldn't last for long
A minorAm E minorEm
But now I think I'm able to carry on
G+G A minorAm
It's been a long, a long time coming
C majorC B7B7 E minorEm G+G
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will

Fun Fact-
The Piano used to play this song, (footage by crackerfarm) was played in such
albums such as "Country Was" and "A Carolina Jubilee". It was then auctioned
off to raise money for a women's shelter, the proceeds benefiting battered
women. Seth also recently donated his own hair to "Wigs for Kids" an
organization that gives children with cancer wigs...
