[Intro]
G E7
This ain't comin' from no prophet
A7sus A7 C D7
Just an ordinary man
Em G
When I close my eyes I see
A7sus A7
The way this world shall be
C D7
When we all walk hand in hand
G (4 bars)
[Verse 1]
G
When the last child cries, for a crust of bread
Cmaj7 D
When the last man dies, for just words that he said
G
When there's shelter over, the poorest head
Em D G
Then we shall, be free
[Verse 2]
When the last thing we notice, is the color of skin
And the first thing we look for is the beauty within
When the skies and the oceans are clean again
Then we shall be free
[Chorus]
Em G A7sus A7 C A7sus
We shall be free We shall be free
G A7
Stand strait and walk proud
C D7 G
'Cause we shall be free
[Verse 3]
When we're free to love, anyone we choose
When this world's big enough for all different views
When we all can worship, from our own kind of pew
Then we shall, be free
[Chorus]
Em G A7sus A7 C A7sus
We shall be free We shall be free
G A7
Have a little faith and hold out
C D7 Em7
'Cause we shall be free
[Bridge]
A7 C D G/B D/A G
D/F# Em7 C
And when money talks, for the very last time
G D
And nobody walks, a step behind
D# Em A7
And there's only one race, and that's mankind
C D G
Then we shall, be free
[Outro]
Em G A7sus A7
We shall be free
C A7sus A7
We shall be free
G A7
Stand straight, and walk proud
C D G
'Cause we shall be free
