[N] I hear [Em] her voice, [Am] she calls to [Em] me.
I know [C] she's [Am] near, but I [C] cannot [Em] see.
Through prison walls that come between, her [Am] dreams of freedom and the [Bm] real.
Where [C] her face is never [D] seen, and [Am]
all the change is there that can be [D] found.
And [Am] far away I hear [C] the distant [D] sound, it's rolling like [E] thunder.
[D]
Oh, [G] shout it from [D] the highest window, [Em] break down every [C] door.
[G] And tell them you [D] won't take it [C] anymore.
[G] So that you will never [D] spend a [Em] lifetime on your [C] knees.
Rise [G] up and catch the keeper of the [F] keys.
[C]
[G]
[Em] Oh, what ancient words can hold her [Am] here.
But she's never [Em] heard by [D] men who [Em] claim the higher ground.
Was always [Am] there for them to [Bm] have a hold, and where a [C] woman's never [D] found.
[Bm] All of those [Em] holy men who are [C] at her [D]
door, are frightened that [Em] they will [C] be lost [G] [A]
[D] forevermore.
[Am] She believes [G] her freedom's on the [D] way, still [Am] it's getting [C] louder every [D] day.
The sound [C] of thunder.
[D]
[C]
[D]
[G] Shout it from the [D] highest window, [Em] break down every [C] door.
[G] And tell them you [D] won't take it [C] anymore.
[G] So that you [D] will never spend a [Em] lifetime on your [C] knees.
And when [G] you catch and kill the [D] keeper of the [C] keys.
You will be free.
