Sooner or later, comes the day.
Verse 2:
Bb C F
Let there be joy where there was sorrow,
Bb C Dm
Let there be hope where there was none,

And even as your life-blood flowed away,
Bb C F
Neda, your heart is living on.
Chorus:
F Bb F
People of the world stand up for freedom,
Dm Bb C
Voices call from a distant shore,
Dm C Bb F
For the winds of change are blowing stronger,
Dm C
And Evil men will fall,
Dm C F Bb F
For freedom will not wait anymore.
Verse 3:
Bb C F
Let there be Spring where there was Winter,
Bb C Dm
Let there be green where there was grey,

Even as the Lion seems to sleep,
Bb C F
Sooner or later, he will wake.
