A Change Is Gonna Come chords by Three Dog Night

Capo III

Am
I was born by a river in a little tent
                         Em
And just like this river     I've been running ever since
             Am
It's been a too long, too long time a coming.
       G
But I know a change gonna come, oh, yes, it is
Am
It's been too hard living and I'm afraid to die
                             Em
I don't know what's up there    beyond the sky
            Am
It's been a long time, a long time a coming

Am
But I know, Lord, I know a change gonna come, Lord  Yeah, yes
                         Am
And then I went to see my brother, oh yeah

               Am
I said, "Brother, help me, please", he turned me down

                 A7
And then I went,    I went to see my sweet mother
                                    D7
I said, "Mama, mama I'm down on my knees"

           Am
It's been too hard living and I'm afraid to die
                             Em
I don't know what's up there    beyond the sky
             Am
It's been a long, long time a coming
       G
