Hairspray - I Know Where Ive Been

[G]   [C/G]   [Dm/G]   [C/G]
[G]   [C/G]   [G]   [D]    [C/D]

There's a [G]light in the [B]darkness [B7]
Though the [Em]night is black as my [Cm]skin
          [G]             [B]+
There's a light burning bright showing me the way
But [B7]I know where I've [Em]been [C/D]

[G]There's a cry in the [B]distance
It's a [Em]voice that comes from deep with[Cm]in   [Dm/C]           [Cm]
          [G]          [B]+
There's a cry asking why
I pray the [Em]answer'[G7]s u[D]p a[C]head, [F#7]
'cause [B7]I know where I've [Em]been

There's a [Am7]road we've been [Em]trav'lin'
Lost so [Am7]many on the [Em]way
But the [Bm]riches will be [C7]plenty
With the [C#dim7]price, the [A#dim7]price we had to [Bsus4]pay    [B]       [D]            [C/D]

There's a [G]dream in the [B]futur[B7]e
There's a [Em]struggle we have yet to [Cm]win[Dm/C]      [Cm]
And there's [G/D]pride in my [B7#9]heart[Eb]
'cause [Em]I kno[G7]w w[D]here I'm [C]going, [G/B]yes I [Am7]do
And [C/D]I know where I've [G]been, yeah

(There's a [Am7]road)
There's a road
(We must [Em]travel)
We must travel
(There's a [Am7]promise)
There's a promise
(We must [Em]make)
We must make
(Cause the [Bm]riches)
Cause the riches
(Will be [C]plenty)
Will be plenty
           [C#]°7
(Worth the risk,)
Worth the risk
And the chances that we [Bsus4]take   [B]        [D]             [Eb]

There's a [Ab]dream in the [C]futur[C]e
There's a [Fm]struggle we have yet to [C#m]win [Ebm]     [C#]         [C#m]
Use that [Ab]pri[Eb]de in our [C7]hearts [E]
To [Fm]lift us up to to[C#]morrow [G7]
'cause just to sit [C7]still would be a[Fm] sin
(I know it, I [Fm]kno[Eb]w it, I know where [Cm7]I'm g[Bbm7]oin')
Lord knows [C#]I k[Eb]now where I've been  [Ab]
Oh[C], when we win[C#]
I'll give thanks to my [C#m]God [E]
'cause I [F#]know where I've [Ab]been
