[Intro] C#m G#m C#m G#m C#m A F#m7 B [Chorus]
    A       G#m  F#m
Oh, I stood watching

B   A       E   A
Oh, I stood waiting

           B         A                        D
And as the rivers of freedom run through this land

        C#m          A    E      B
I'll be there for to lend you my hand
[Instrumental] C#m G#m C#m G#m C#m [Verse]
                        G#m       C#m
Well, I listened to the shouting

                    G#m   C#m
Of those with their lies

                G#m    C#m
Who tore at the heart

                   G#m   C#m
Of this country of mine
[Verse]
    E              A          E
But here's where a quiet man

                  A     E
With truth in his hand

           C#m          A             B
Can make a stand and be heard in this land
[Chorus]
   A       G#m  F#m
So I stood watching

B   A       E   A
Oh, I stood waiting

           B         A                        D
And as the rivers of freedom run through this land

        C#m          A    E      B
I'll be there for to lend you my hand
[Instrumental] C#m G#m C#m G#m C#m [Verse]
                  G#m         C#m
So I stood by the watch road

                G#m             C#m
Till the October of their days

         G#m               C#m
With the winds to my left

         G#m               C#m  G#m
And then far from the right and blowing my way
[Verse]
    E          A     E
But now is the hour

               A
The time I can see

           E            C#m            A          B
When we'll win with the truth that has made us so free
[Chorus]
   A       G#m  F#m
So I stood watching

B   A       E   A
Oh, I stood waiting

           B         A                        D
And as the rivers of freedom run through this land

        C#m          A    E      B
I'll be there for to lend you my hand
[Chorus]
    A       G#m  F#m
Oh, I stood watching

B   A       E   A
Oh, I stood waiting
[Outro] C#m G#m C#m G#m
