We Shall Overcome

C        F   C              F   C     
We shall overcome, we shall overcome,
             Am C  E    G    
we shall overcome some day!
    C                 F      Am    
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe
C         F  C    G   C    
we shall overcome someday.

    The chords have been updated to more accurately reflect the harmonies in the hymnal. The key has also been changed to C.
