Intro: C#m7 | B/D# | E | Eadd2 (2x)
V1: C#m7 B/D#
E
Eadd2
The problem’s not a gun,
not a color, not a hundred dollar bill
C#m7 B/D# E
Eadd2
We think the struggle can be won with simple thoughts like 'come together be
good willed'
PC: A2 Bsus4 C#m7 Bsus4
The gap between the rich
and poor is spreading out all the more or so they say, we ignore the claims
C:
A2 | E5
|
Bsus4 | C#m7 | A2 | E5 | Bsus4
O my soul, faint not, no,
faint not
A2 | E5
|
Bsus4 | C#m7 | A2 | E5 | Bsus4
O my soul, keep up, up
in love
V2: It’s not that we don’t know or
we’re not shown the proof of poverty
It’s not that we don’t have
the tools to go to break this yoke of slavery
PC2: We
quit because it’s not an easy fix and then forget that they are even there. We
forget to care
CH2: Oh
my soul…
B: A2
A2
E5 Bsus4
Where there is
hatred, let me sow love
Where there is injury, let me pardon
Where there is
darkness, let the Light come,
C#oct D#oct
Come
