Matt, for now

Written by Montreal-born jazz pianist Oscar Peterson in 1962, and adopted as an anthem of the 1960's civil rights movement. The lyrics were written by Harriette Hamilton.

When every heart joins every heart and together yearns for liberty, that's when we'll be free.
When every hand joins every hand and together moulds our destiny, that's when we'll be free.
Any hour, any day, the time soon will come when we will live in dignity, that's when we'll be free.
When everyone joins in our song and together sings in harmony, that's when we'll be free.

"The music field was the first to break down racial barriers, because in order to play together, you have to love the people you are playing with, and if you have any racial inhibitions, you wouldn't be able to do that." -- Oscar Peterson

For some strange reason I can't seem to get the repeat boxes and coda signs to appear on most of the charts, so you'll have to write in those changes by hand...

Here are the instructions.

In the intro (first 8 bars) there should be a repeat box 1 on bar 8 so we jump to box 2 on bar 9 the second time around.

Same thing for the verse (bars 9 to 33) : there should be repeat box 1 over bars 26 to 29 and a jump to box 2 on bar 30 the second time around, before going into the chorus (bars 34-41).

After the bridge (bars 43-59) there should be a DS al Coda sign going back to a DS sign on bar 14. Then when when we hit bar 33 where there should be a To Coda sign, leading to the Coda which should be indicated at bar 39.

I'm still not sure if we should play the instrumental ending or all sing the last words which read: "Together we stand divided we fall."

Let's try the song and we'll see if it's worth putting more time to fix it...

This is a song from the Sacred Harp tradition, meaning that it's a very old folk song from England that was cleaned up and fitted with a religious text. But the tune is fun so I'd like to try it with the band! This arrangement is based on a version prepared by Jason of RMO.

Alternate lyrics, from RMO:

We rise by millions! Workers rise
and fill the streets with freedom sounds!
A glorious radiance fills the skies,
a sudden trembling shakes the ground.

To learn to sing the four part lyrics, it might help to use this otherwise unlistenable version by German robots.
