_ _ _ I wish [C#] _ [D] I [A] knew how _ [D] _ it would [A] feel to be [D] free.
_ [A] I [E] _ [A] wish I could break _ [Em] _ [B] all the chains [E] that still bind me.

_ _ [C#] _ _ [F#m] _
_ [D] _ _ [A] _ [B] I'd be starting [A] anew.
_ _ _ [G#m] I [D] wish _ [G#m] I could [Bm] be like a bird [A] in the sky.
Don't leave me.
How sweet it would be [E] to [Bm] find that [E] I could fly.
_ [A] _ _ [G#] I'd [D] soar to the sun _ [E] and look [A]
down at the [F#m] sea.
[E] Then I'd [D] sing, [B] because I [A] know [F] how it [F#m]
feels to be [D] free.

wish I could share _ [E] [A] all the love [E] that's in my [A] heart.
_ [B] _ [A] Wish I could [E] break [B] all the [E] things that bind us [A] apart.
I [C#] wish [F#m] you could [A] know [D] what it means to be me.
Then you'd see, [C#] _ you'd agree, [D] _ _ everybody [F#] should be [G#] free,
because if we ain't, [B] we're murderous.
_ _ [C#] Wish [F#m] _
[A] I _ [D] could be [E] like a bird [A] in the sky.
How _ [B] _ _ [E] _ sweet [A] _
it would _ [B] be to find [E] _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [G#m] _ _ [D] _
that I could fly.
I'd soar to the sun _ _ [E] _ _ [A] _
[B] and look down at the sea.
[D] Then I'd [A] _ [D] sing, _ [E] because I [A] _ [C#] know _ [F#m] _
_ [A] _ [Bm] how it feels _ [A] _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ [F#m] _ _ [A] _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [C#] _ [F#m] to _ [A] _ _ [D] _ [B] be free.
I [A]
wish [C#] _ [F#m] I could share all the love that's in my heart.
I [A] already know [D] _
_ Jonathan [A] Livingston [C#] Siegel [F#m] ain't got [A] nothing on [D] me.
_ _ _ [A] _
_ [C#] _ _ [F#m] Free, [A] free, [D] _
free, _ [A] _ [F#m] free. _ _
I'm free, [D] and [B] I know [A] it.
Don't want to be [F#m] here, and I sure [D] it.
But [E] I'm still [A] free.
You're [C#] leaving [F#m] me.
It's all [A] right.
_ [D] _ _ _ [E] [A] Then I'd sing, _ _ [Bm] _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [G#] _
because [F#m] _ _ [D] _ [B] I would know.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
I [C#m] _ already [Bm] know, _ already [D] _ _ [C#m] _ _ [E] _ know, _ _ [C#m] _ how _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [G#] _
_ [E] _ _ _ [B] it feels _ to be chained _ _ to anything,
_ to any race, to any faith, to any _ _ _ _ creed, to any hopes, to anything. _ _
I know.
