Stand Up - Cynthia Erivo | Guitar Chords

[Intro]
---------------------
Dm

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Dm
I been walkin'
With my face turned to the sun
Weight on my shoulders
A bullet in my gun
Oh, I got eyes in the back of my head
Just in case I have to run
I do what I can when I can while I can for my people
                                                  C
While the clouds roll back and the stars fill the night
                      Dm
That's when I'm gonna stand up

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
        C      F
Take my people with me
                C
Together we are going
               Bb
To a brand new home
Am   C         Dm
Far across the river
             C       F
Can you hear freedom calling?
              C
Calling me to answer
                      Bb
Gonna keep on keepin' on
      Am      C  Dm
I can feel it in my bones

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Dm
Early in the mornin'
Before the sun begins to shine
We're gonna start movin'
Towards that separating line
I'm wadin' through muddy waters
You know I got a made up mind
And I don't mind if I lose any blood on the way to salvation
                                                    C
And I'll fight with the strength that I got until I die
             Dm
So I'm gonna stand up

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
        C      F
Take my people with me
                C
Together we are going
               Bb
To a brand new home
Am   C         Dm
Far across the river
             C       F
Can you hear freedom calling?
              C
Calling me to answer
                      Bb
Gonna keep on keepin' on

[Bridge]
---------------------
                   F
And I know what's around the bend
         A                            Dm C
Might be hard to face 'cause I'm alone
      Bb
And I just might fail
         F
But Lord knows I tried
Sure as stars fill up the sky

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------

To a brand new home

Calling me to answer

Gonna keep on keepin' on
                 F#m
I can feel it in my bones

I go to prepare a place for you
I go to prepare a place for you
I go to prepare a place for you
I go to prepare a place for you
