A Change Is Gonna Come Lyrics

E E7
I was born by the river in this little old tent
A C#m B
And just like the river I've been running ever since
E A
It's been a long time coming
G# C#m A B E
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it is
It's been too hard living, but I don't wanna die
Cos I don't know what's out there beyond the clouds
It's been a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it is
BRIDGE:
F#m C#m
And then I go to told my brother
F#m C#m
And I said brother can you help me
F#m C#m
But he winds up knockin' me
F# B B7
I got down on my knees

There's been a time that i felt that i cuouldn't get along
But now I know I'm still able to carry on
It's been a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it is
