The choir sings the verse as a Dm7 chord followed by Dmadd9, but on guitar

you can just use Dm.

There are a few different versions out there, I transcribed the chords from

this one:

It has THREE key changes. I am so sorry guitarists. This version is best for

piano players.

[Intro]
Dm

[Verse 1]
Dm
I been walkin' with my face turned to the sun

Weight on my shoulders, bullet in my gun

Oh, I got eyes in the back of my head just in case I have to run
N.C.
I do what I can when I can while I can for my people
G C
While the clouds roll back and the stars fill the night

[Chorus]
Am C Dm
That's when I'm gonna stand up
C/E F
Take my people with me
C/E C Bb
Together we are going to a brand new home
Am C Dm
Far across the river
C/E F
Can you hear freedom calling?
C/E C
Calling me to answer
Bb
Gonna keep on keepin' on
Am C Dm
I can feel it in my bones
Dm

[Verse 2]
Dm
Early in the mornin' before the sun begins to shine

Gonna start movin' towards that separating line
Dm F/C G/B Bb Am
I'm wading through muddy waters, you know I got a made-up mind
C
Dm N.C
And I don't mind if I lose any blood on the way to salvation
