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 ^Fborn by the river^C7 in a little tent ^Dm And just like that river I've been running^Am ever since It's been a ^Flong ^Dm7a long time coming But I ^Fkn^E7ow ^Am a change is gonna come, oh ^Fyes it will

It's been ^Ftoo hard living,^C7 but I'm afraid to die ^Dm Cause I don't know what's out ther^Ame beyond the sky It's been a ^Flong, a ^Dmlong time coming But I ^Fkn^E7ow ^Am a change is gonna come, oh ^Fyes it will

I ^Fgo to the movies^C7, and I go downtown, ^Dm Somebody keep telling don't^Am hang around, It's been a ^Flong, a ^Dmlong time coming But I k^Fno^E7w ^Am a change is gonna come, oh ^Fyes it will

^Dm And then I go to see my ^Fbrother ^Dm And I ask him to help ^Fme please ^Dm But he winds up ^Amknockin' me ^D7 Back down on my ^Gknees

There've been ^Ftimes I thought I couldn't^C7 last for long ^Dm But now I think I'm able^Am to carry on It's been a ^Flong, a^Dm long time coming But I k^Fno^E7w ^Am a change is gonna come, oh ^Fyes 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...
