[Bbm] [Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb]
I was walking down the street,
in a town where I was born.
I was really, really big,
and I never did grow.
So I opened up my eyes,
and I took a look around.
Saw a reddened cross in the sky,
and the revolution starts now.
[Eb] [Fm] Yeah, the [Ab] revolution [Bb] starts [Eb] now.
[Bb] The revolution starts now.
And I'm waiting right above my feet.
The walls are hanging down,
and the revolution starts here.
Where can we play?
Where can we remind them?
I wish you would see,
the revolution starts now.
[F] Yeah, [Ab] the revolution [Bb] starts now.
[Eb]
[Bb]
[Fm] Yeah, the [Eb] revolution [Bb] starts now.
You're standing in an old black yard [Ab] in your own [Bb] home [Fm] town.
So what you [Eb] do is sit [Bb] and pray,
just follow your heart,
and [Cm] live as a [Bb] Muslim.
[Ab] [Bb]
[Fm]
[Ab] [Bb]
Last night I dreamed,
the world had turned around.
All our hoes had come to me,
and the people gathered around.
I feel proud of what they could bring.
I'm nobody without.
I learned a song to sing.
The revolution [Eb] starts now.
[Bb]
[Fm] Yeah, the [Ab] revolution [Bb] starts now.
In your old black yard [Ab] in your own [Bb] home town.
[F] So [Fm] what you do is sit and [Bb] pray,
just follow your heart,
and [Ab] live as a Muslim.
[Eb]
[Fm] Yeah, [Ab] the revolution [Bb] starts now.
In your old black yard in [Ab] your [Cm] own home town.
[Fm] So [Ab] what you do is sit and [Bb] pray,
just follow your heart,
and [Ab] live [Bb] as a Muslim.
