G                    Am                        G  
Arlis Richards was a man who lived among the blacks  
                   Am                        G  
He was a crosstie walker with guitar on his back   
            Am                       G  
barely educated couldn't write his name  
                         Am                     G  
but when he played his guitar this is what he sang

I have been set free  pain and misery no longer follow me  I know Jesus!

                   Am           G  
Just outside of Memphis back in 52   
              Am                          G    
Arlis was a ramblin the way that he would do  
                 Am                    G     
playing on his guitar sitting in the shade  
                Am                          G    
people came to listen to the music that he made

G              B7   Em           C   G                D            C  
I have been set free pain and misery no longer follow me  I know Jesus!

BRIDGE  UNKNOWN  CAN WORK WITH OTHERS  
Bm          Am                    G 
Some folks walked on by when they saw the color of his skin  
Bm       Am                       C 
others stayed and cried when they saw the man within.  
  
SOLO Am  Gm  
                  Am                  G 
when his song was over Arlis went his way  
                   Am                        G  
But some folks say revival started that day

G              B7   Em       C    G             D            C  
I have been set free pain and misery no longer follow me  I know Jesus!
