[Bm][G][C][C5][A][G][Bm][G][C5][G#5]
[A]
[Am]"When they

[Verse 1]
[G]gon' [Am]give us the blue [C]suits?"[G]

[Verse 2]
[D- Nice] [G]Back
in the civil war days [Am]of 1863
Was the year that free
Blacks would try to adapt [G]as soldiers
Live [Am]as equals and get w[G]hat's ow[Am]ed us
[G]And in this time they had yet
to find inner [Am]peace
Which comes from the heart and [G]mind
So listen [Am]close as [G]I explain the story
Of the regiment of blacks on the path to [A]find
[C5]Glory
[A][Am][A][Am][C5][G]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]
[C5]"Courage, [A]spirit, an[G]d honor" [Bm]. on the path
to [G]find [C5]Glory[Am][A][G][Bm]
[C5]"Courage, [Am]spir[G#]it, and [A]hono[Am]r"
[Bb][Eb][Gm]

[Verse 4]
[Dm][D- Nice]
Bust it, [G]yo
Here's an example of
courage [Am]and strength
[G]That dwelled in the [Am]men that
went the whole length
To prove that each can stand as a man
And demonstrate,
he can carry his own [C5]weight
But there was some tryin
to add to [G]the plight
[Am]Of the b[G]lack man, denyin his right to fight
As an [Am]equal, [G]for self- [Am]esteem
Ran through the crew or so it seemed
Cause even in times when
life seemed colder
He still remained proud to
be a black [G]soldier
Waitin for the chance to ad[Am]vance
And under the [A]circumstance,
[Am]managed to enhance
[C]His [C5]courage, and when put [G]to [Am]war
He'd do much more than
what's bargained for
And each man, [C5]that can [G]tell the [Am]story
[A]Knew from [Am]the start deep down in his heart they'd find
[C5]Glor[G#]y
[A][Am][C5][G]

[Verse 5]
[Bm]
[C5]"Courage, [Am]spir[A]it, an d[Am] hono[G]r" [C5]. on the[G][Bm]
[C5]path to find [Am]Glory[A][Am][G][C5][G][Bm][G][Bm]
[C5]"Courage, [A5]spirit, [A]an [Am]d honor[Bb]"[Eb][G5]
[G]. break it [Dm]down[C5]
[Am]

[Verse 6]
[scratch:] "here's an example
of courage and [Am]strength"

[Verse 7]
[Am][D- Nice]
These brothers have died and cried,
for power and freedom
But now [G]look [Am]what we've done
We're robbin and killin our own race
[Am]Black and rap will be lost without a [C5]trace
So take heed to the knowledge
[Am]I'm bustin
You're sellin yourself short,
that's "Self Destruction"
The song I sing to let freedom ring
So listen to the knowledge I bring as I speak [C5]about
Glory
