[G]
[C]
Hear [D] the children [G]
[Dm] crying, [G] [Am]
but I know [F] they cry [G] not in vain.
[C]
Now the [D] times [G] are changing, [Dm] [Am] love buds come [F] to bloom [G]
again.
[E] [F]
[C] Smelling the air, [G]
unsprinkled by raindrops, [F]
reminds [C] us of youthful [G]
days.
[F]
But [C] now [G] it's not a line, but water the canyons [F] cross.
But the sweat from man's breath, the substance from our [Fm] spine.
[F] We gotta keep on living, living on borrowed [Fm] time.
[Am] As [Dm] you can hear the [G] children singing, [C]
as [Am] they [Dm] go singing by [G] and by.
[Em]
[A] Do you [Dm] hear the children singing in [G] the morning?
[C]
[Am] Let them [Dm] sing, don't you let [G] them cry.
[C]
Over [D] rocks [G] and mountains, [Am] the sheep [F] are scattered all [G] around.
[C]
Over [D] hills [G] and valleys, [Am] they are everywhere [F] to [G] be found.
[F]
But [C] though we fear [G] our burdens now, [F]
all [C] afflictions by the [G] wind somehow.
[F]
[C] From swinging the hammer, [G]
pulling the plow.
[F]
Why won't you let us be, [Fm]
to live in harmony?
We like to be free, like birds in a [Am] tree.
[Dm] As you can hear the [G] children singing, [F]
[Em] [A] [Dm] as they go singing by [G] and [C] by.
[Am] Do you hear [Dm] the children singing in [G] the morning?
[F] [C] [Am] [Dm] Let them sing, never [G] let them cry.
[C] [A] Ooh, [Dm] hallelujah, sing it [G] in the morning.
[F] [C] [Am] [Dm]
