Someday

      G   C/G         G   C/G
I was walking with my brother
       G    C/G              D C
And he wondered what's on my mind
                G           C/G
I said what I believe in my soul
             G           C/G
Ain't what I see with my eyes
       Em             C          D C
And we can't turn our backs this time

       G       C/G
I am a patriot
              G       C/G
And I love my county
           G     C/G        D  C
Because my country is all I know
                     G   C/G
I want to be with my family
                     G     C/G
The people who understand me
         Em      C       D C
I've got nowhere else to go
G             C/G
And the river opens for the righteous
G             C/G
And the river opens for the righteous
G             C/G
And the river opens for the righteous
G             C/G
Someday

          G    C/G        G    C/G
And I was talking with my sister
              G
She looked so fine
        C                     D
I said, "Baby, what's on your mind?"
          C                       G  C/G
She said, "I want to run like the lion"
                  G   C/G
Released from the cages
                  Em
Released from the rages
C                   D   C
Burning in my heart tonight
