A CHANGE IS GONNA COME- Sam Cooke
E E7
I was born by the river in a little tent
A C#m B
And just like that river I've been running ever since
E A
It's been a long time coming
Ab C#m A B E
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
It's been too hard living, but I'm afraid to die
Cos I don't know what's out there beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
BRIDGE:
F#m C#m
And then I go to see my brother
F#m C#m
And I ask him to help me please
F#m C#m
And he just winds up knockin' me
F# B B7
Back down on my knees
There were times when I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, been a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
REPEAT VERSE 2
NOTE: I know this song from the Aretha Franklin and Band versions, but I
figure it's only right to post this under Sam Cooke's name.
