[Chorus]

*The G/G chord is just a normal C with the low G string (fattest)
included in the strumming. You could also use an Gm, but G/G
sounds better.
GmOne day when the Fglory comes
It will be G/Gours, it will FbeC ours
oh GmOne day when the Fwar is won
We will beG/G sure, we will FbeC sure
Oh Gmglory F (glory) G/G (glory) F C (glory)

[Verse I]
GmHands to the Heavens, no man, no weapon
F Formed against, yes glory is destined
G/GEvery day women and men become Flegends
CSins that Go against our skin become blessings
Gm The movement is a rhythm to us
FreeFdom is like religion to us
JuG/Gstice is juxtapositionin' uFs
JusCtice for all just ain't specific enough
One Gmson died, his spirit is revisitin' us
Truant Flivin' livin' in us, resistance is us
That's G/Gwhy Rosa sat on the bus
That's Fwhy we Cwalk through Ferguson with our hands up
GmWhen it Go down we woman and man up
They Fsay, “Stay down”, and we stand up
G/GShots, we on the grown, the camera panned uFp
King Cpointed to the mountain top and we ran up

[Chorus]

GmOne day when the Fglory comes
It will be G/Gours, it will FbeC ours
oh GmOne day when the Fwar is won
We will beG/G sure, we will FbeC sure
Oh Gmglory F (glory) G/G (glory) F C (glory)

[Bridge]

Now the Cmwar is not over, Fvictory isn't won
And we'll Gmfight on to the finish, Cthen when it's all done
We'll cryCm glory, ohF glory ohGm (glory) C (glory)
We'll cryCm glory, ohF glory ohGm (glory) C (glory)

[Verse II]
Selma'sGm now for every man, woman and child
Even FJesus got his crown in front of a crowd
They G/Gmarched with the torch, we gon' run with it now
F Never Clook back, we done gone hundreds of miles
From Gmdark roads he rose, to become a hero
FFacin' the league of justice, his power was the people
G/GEnemy is lethal, a king became Fregal
CSaw the face of Jim Crow under a bald eagle
The Gmbiggest weapon is to stay peaceful
We Fsing, our music is the cuts that we bleed through
G/GSomewhere in the dream we had an eFpiphanyC

Now we right the wrongs in history
GmNo one can win the war individually
It takes the Fwisdom of the elders and young people's energy
G/GWelcome to the story we call vicFtory
the CComin' of the Lord, my eyes have seen the glory

[Chorus]

GmOne day when the Fglory comes
It will be G/Gours, it will FbeC ours
oh GmOne day when the Fwar is won
We will beG/G sure, we will FbeC sure
Oh Gmglory   F (glory) G/G (glory) F C (glory)
When the waGmr is won,F when it's alG/Gl said and doneF   C
We'll crGmy glory,F oh gG/Glory  F   C
