We Shall Overcome

We Shall Overcome became a key anthem of the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s. It has remained an important piece wherever people are looking for freedom: for example, in 1989 people sang it in the streets of Prague during the Velvet Revolution. Famous performers of this song include such names as Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, Bruce Springsteen and Roger Waters.

Our piano arrangement is carefully made, simple but beautiful. The sheet music is very hymn-like respecting the mood of the song when it is sung. Choose from two variations: one with the chords written above the staff or a blank version without chord symbols.
