I was born by the river,   in a little tent,
Dm                                Am
 just like the river I've been running ever since
                 C                 Dm            F   E7
     It's been a long, a long time coming, but I know
  Am                              C      C4  C
A change is gonna come, oh yes it will

     C                     C
It's been too hard living,   but I'm afraid to die
Dm                           Am
I don't know what's up there   beyond the sky,
            C         Dm          F   E7
It's been a long time coming, but I know
  Am                              C      C4  C
A change is gonna come, oh yes it will

     C            C
I go to the movie   and I go downtown
Dm                                Am
Somebody always tellin' me: don't hang around
            C                 Dm            F   E7
It's been a long, a long time coming, but I know
  Am                              C      C4  C
A change is gonna come, oh yes it will

Dm
  Now I go
          Am
to see my brother
      Dm
I say brother,
        Am
help me please
       Dm
But he wind up
  Am
a-knocking me
D7              Gadd11   G7
back down on my knees

           C                    C
There been times that I thought   I couldn't last for long
Dm                      Am
Now I think I'm able to carry on
            C                 Dm            F   E7
It's been a long, a long time coming, but I know
  Am                              C      C4  C
A change is gonna come, oh yes it will
