---------------------.............. *from 'Burnin'' (1973)* Intro: G Verse 1:

C         D        G      G7
 Hear the children cryin',

Am                          G
 But I know they cry not in vain.

C        D         G        G7
 Now the times are changin',

Am                        G
 Love has come to bloom a-gain.

Bridge 1:

F             C        G
 Smelling the air when Spring comes by raindrops,

F              C        G
 Reminds us of youthful days.

F                 C    G
 But now it's not rain, that water the cane crops,

F
 But the sweat from man's brow,

Fm
 The substance from our spine.

We gotta keep on living, living on borrowed time. Chorus 1:

C            Am
 (Hallelujah time),

             Dm                G
Yes, you can hear the children singing.

C            Am
 (Hallelujah time),

           Dm             G
As they go singing by and by.

C            Am
 (Hallelujah time), ooh, hallelujah,

Dm              G
 Singing in the morning.

C            Am
 (Hallelujah time),

               Dm             G
Let them sing, don't let them cry.

Verse 2:

C     D         G         G7
 Over rocks and mountains,

    Am                        G
The sheep are scattered all a-round.

C     D         G       G7
 Over hills and valleys,

         Am               G
They are everywhere to be found.

Bridge 2:

F              C        G
 But though we bear our burdens now,

F       C                    G
 All af-flictions got to end, somehow.

F                  C       G
 From swinging the hammer,  pulling the plough,

F                         Fm
 Why won't you let us be,  to live in harmony?

We like to be free, like birds in a tree. Chorus 2:

C            Am
 (Hallelujah time),

             Dm                G
Yes, you can hear the children singing.

C            Am
 (Hallelujah time),

           Dm             G
As they go singing by and by.

 (Hallelujah time), ooh, hallelujah,

Dm              G
 Singing in the morning.

C            Am
 (Hallelujah time),

               Dm             G
Let them sing, never let them cry.

C            Am
 (Hallelujah time), ooh, hallelujah,

Dm              G
 Singing in the morning...
