Stand Up

Stand Up: Chords

Intro:
REm

REm
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

                    
While the clouds roll back 
        SOL7           DO
and the stars fill the night
       LAm      DO    REm
That's when I'm gonna stand up
        DO/MI  FA
Take my people with me
         FA/MI  DO
Together we are going
               SIb
To a brand new home
LAm  DO        REm
Far across the river
             DO/MI   FA
Can you hear freedom calling?
        FA/MI DO
Calling me to answer
                      SIb
Gonna keep on keepin' on
      LAm        REm
I can feel it in my bones

REm
Early in the mornin'
                      
Before the sun begins to shine

We're gonna start movin'
                    
Towards that separating line
                               REm/DO      
I'm wadin' through muddy waters
                         SOL/SI    SIb6   FA/LA
You know I got a made up mind
DO           REm
 And I don't mind if I lose any blood 

on the way to salvation
                        
         REm            FA
And I'll fight with the strength 
       SOL         DO  DO/SIb
that I got until I die 
LAm          REm
So I'm gonna stand up
        DO/MI  FA
Take my people with me
         FA/MI  DO
Together we are going
               SIb
To a brand new home
LAm  DO        REm
Far across the river
             DO/MI   FA

Calling me to answer
                      SIb
Gonna keep on keepin' on...

                   FA      
And I know what's around the bend
         LA7                       REm   DO6
Might be hard to face 'cause I'm alone
      SIb
And I just might fail
         FA
But Lord knows I tried
        MIm7/5- FA#m7/5- MIm/SOL MI7/SOL#
Sure as stars   fill     up      the 
LA7 FA#7/LA# SI7 SI7/RE#
sky

Stand Up è un brano scritto e interpretato da Cynthia Erivo, pubblicato come singolo nel 2019 e che la cantautrice ed attrice londinese realizza per la colonna sonora del film "Harriet": diretto da Kasi Lemmons in cui la Erivo veste i panni dell'attivista afroamericana Harriet Tubman, a favore dell'abolizione della schiavitù. Musica e parole sono scritte insieme a Joshuah Brian Campbell, per un pezzo blues-gospel che prende spunto da alcune frasi di Harriet.
