A CHANGE IS GONNA COME - The Avett Brothers Tabbed by: Macheeoo Email: macheeoo@yahoo.com Tuning: Standard (A Sam Cooke cover done by Seth on piano, these are the chords he used!)

I was ^Gborn by the river^G7 in a little tent ^Am And just like that river I've been running^Em ever since It's been a ^Glong ^Am7a long time coming But I ^Ckn^B7ow ^Em a change is gonna come, oh ^Gyes it will

It's been ^Gtoo hard living,^G7 but I'm afraid to die ^Am Cause I don't know what's out ther^Eme beyond the sky It's been a ^Glong, a ^Amlong time coming But I ^Ckn^B7ow ^Em a change is gonna come, oh ^Gyes it will

I ^Ggo to the movies^G7, and I go downtown, ^Am Somebody keep telling don't^Em hang around, It's been a ^Glong, a ^Amlong time coming But I k^Cno^B7w ^Em a change is gonna come, oh ^Gyes it will

^Am And then I go to see my ^Gbrother ^Am And I ask him to help ^Gme please ^Am But he winds up ^Emknockin' me ^A7 Back down on my ^Dknees

There've been ^Gtimes I thought I couldn't^G7 last for long ^Am But now I think I'm able^Em to carry on It's been a ^Glong, a^Am long time coming But I k^Cno^B7w ^Em a change is gonna come, oh ^Gyes it will

END!!! Fun Fact- The Piano used to play this song, (footage by crackerfarm) was played in such albums such as "Country Was" and "A Carolina Jubilee". It was then auctioned off to raise money for a women's shelter, the proceeds benefiting battered women. Seth also recently donated his own hair to "Wigs for Kids" an organization that gives children with cancer wigs...
