_ [A#] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ [A#] Every grief, _ _ _ [F] Lord, _ and _ _ every color
_ _ Let _ _ every _ _ _ _ man know, Lord

_ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ [Cm] To hate his brother [G] because _ _ of the [Cm] color of his skin
And then while you're talking to [Fm] him, don't forget to tell him this

[Fm] Our [A#] _ _ _ _ _
_ [G#] hands, _ _ _ _ oh Lord
_ _ [F] Please _ don't let our hands do anything wrong
_ _ _ Oh, _ dear

[Gm] He was only trying to tell the world [F] this
_ _ [G#m] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _
He said, _ [C#] God, [G#] I'll win
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I [Fm] said, you better be sure _ [F] Oh, _ _ _ _ dear
_ _ _ Oh, Father
_ _ _ Let [C] all of this hate be ceased
