to know that freedom as a rule belongs to me
E
there’s something very wrong
A B E
when the colour of a man is all you see
C#m
after all this time
F#m B
how can a single voice explain
C#m A F#m
any reason for the pain we all have seen
A
it’s not a dream

[ chorus : ]
E B
one man stood tall
C#m A
and faced the devil with his back to the wall
E
and took one step
B A E
closer to heaven above

E
so he took a stand
A B E
and walked where no one else would dare to even try
E
it was the only way
A B E
if not for bravery the soul would surely die
C#m F#m B
and right before my eyes he gave his life unselfishly
C#m A F#m
so that all the father’s children could be free
A
like you and me , yeah

[ chorus ]

F#m B
before his work is done
E C#m
we’ve got to put an end to this game of
A A – G# – F#m
choosing sides
B
i want us to be one
C#m A
and i won’t let it go
F#m
till it’s over
E
i’m here waiting
