[Verse]
E                       
There was a man named Mahatma 
Esus4         E                  
Ghandi, he would not bow down he 
      Esus4
would not fight
E                    Esus4       
He knew the deal was down and 
    E                   Esus4
dirty, nothin' wrong could make it 
right
A                                 
Away, but he knew his duty, and 
                  E   Esus4  E
the price he had to pay
                  B7               
Just another holy man, tried to 
    A                   E         
make a stand, my God they killed 
Esus4  E  Esus4
him

E                 Esus4           
Another man from Atlanta Georgia, 
E              Esus4
name of Martin Luther King
E                   Esus4        
Shook the land like rolling 
     E                Esus4
thunder, made the bells of freedom 
ring
Continues after the ad
A                                 
Today, with a dream of beauty that
                 E    Esus4  E
 they could burn away
                  B7               
Just another holy man, dared to be 
  A                   E          
a friend, my God they killed him

E               Esus4        E  
The only Son of God Almight, the
                 Esus4
 Holy One called Jesus Christ
E                   Esus4        
Healed the lame and fed the 
   E                 Esus4
hungry, for his love they took his 
life
A                                 
Away, on the road to glory where 
               E     Esus4  E
the story never ends
                     B7        
Just the Holy Son of Man, we'll
