knew that she seemed
     B            A
as a sculpture of stone,
            G
to those who
        A                B
grew up living history's end.

she said "if there's
D         A
something worse
         D         A
than not living to see
         B             A
what the worth of your work is,
   G        A                B
it's living to find no one's heard
         A
that you fought for it."

and carol rhodes,
        D        A            B
well no one ever said that it would

be understood,
     B     A
understood.

and history books, well they said
D            A             B
"this is how things always looked.
               G       A
it's not to be shook,
               D
it's not to be shook."

harold arthur grew up
D            A              B   
fighting for something that then
          A
 seemed impossible:
G    A            B
liberation from a law.
   A                    D         
he said "when you're not worth as 
A
much
       D           A          B
as the other folks riding the bus,
             G
you put up a fuss.
         A               B
put your life above some law."
G           A
and harold's blood,
   D        A            B       
no one ever said that it would be
      G     A
 understood,
     B
understood.
G         A
and carol rhodes explained
     D              A           B
"sometimes you just do what you 
             A
know that you should,
     G                  A      D
even when it don't feel good."

carol rhodes, she said,
G        A
"history books may have said
D           A             B
this is how things always looked,
                     G     A
but things have been shook.
               B
they have been shook.
G          A
and carol rhodes, she said,
    D              A              
"if there was just one thing that 
B
could
         G     A
be understood:
          D                A
it's that we've since seen things
        B               A        G A
that we thought then impossible."
