   God Will Take Care of Me

This song goes through two separate key changes so it's a bit
tricky to play, so the version here uses a capo on 1, and then it's
moved up to two, then 3 later on.
However in case you need it for piano or bass or something, way down
at the bottom I'll include the actual chords.

Start off with capo on 1

   Dm
   Moses knew it way back in Egypt land
   Gm
   Said it to himself, said it over again
   Dm               A7      Dm
   My God will take care of me
   Dm
   God's people working hard in the blazing sun
   Gm
   Said it to themselves, said in one by one
   Dm               A7      Dm
   My God will take care of me

   Chorus:
   Gm                  Dm
   He will, He will, deliver me from these chains
   A7                                Dm               D
   And walk me through the valley of shadow and death again
   Gm                     Dm
   He will, He will, just watch and you will see
   A7                       Dm
   My God will take care of me




   Verse 2: Key change up half a step
   Move capo up to second fret

   Dm
   Written by the finger of God back then
   Gm
   Written on stone and the hearts of men
   Dm               A7      Dm
   My God will take care of me
   Dm
   You hear it cross the land, hear the people cry
   Gm
   Believing in my heart till the day I die
   Dm               A7      Dm
   My God will take care of me


   [chorus, same chord shapes as before]


   Bridge:
   Dm        Gm      Dm     A7
   Ha-a-le-  lujah,  hallelujah
   Dm        Gm      F  A7  Dm
   Ha-a-le-  lujah,  hallelujah


   Key change up another half step
   Raise capo to 3rd fret

   [chorus once more, with same chord shapes]
