[Verse 1]
G* G Bm* When the river of rebellion overflows, I'll be there G* Bm When the seed of discontent plants and grows, I'll be there C G Em Watching for the sun through the dark and rainy storm C G Em Searching for the keys to the dungeons old and worn C D G Let me tell you, I'll be there
[Verse 2]
G Bm When the shadow of the tyrant falls and sweeps across the land G Bm When men would steal from others with a paper in their hand C G Em When people search for answers and the answers never come C G Em When their troubles would be over if they thought and fought as one C D G Let me tell you, I'll be there
[Chorus]
C Bm Whispering of yesterday has grown into a roar C Bm Winds of freedom blowing out of every distant shore Em C When the time is ready and the call is A loud and clear A D Let me tell you, I'll be there
[Verse 3]
G Bm When the thunder of opression roars and crackles, I'll be there G Bm When those who would be free are wearing shackles, I'll be there C G Em For the day is gonna come when they'll throw away their chains C G Em Lift their heads and raise their arms for the struggle that remains C D G And let me tell you, I'll be there
[Chorus]
