Freedom

Cm7 Cm Db Ab


[Verse 1]
Eb                                       Gm
I was told that a life has no price, you see
Bb                               Eb     Cm
But the hate in your eyes put a price on me
Eb                                      Gm
If the natives were slain for your liberty
Bb                                    Eb          Cm
Please explain what you mean by "The Land of the Free"


[Pre-Chorus]
                Ab
Oh say can you see

But can you really see?


[Chorus]
             Ab               Eb
What does freedom really mean?
                       Fm             Db        Ab Cm
'Cause what I've been sold, ain't what I believe
        Ab              Eb
Maybe freedom ain't for me
                        Fm           Db          Ab
'Cause what I've been shown, ain't what I can see


[Verse 2]

Uh
Eb
Been darker days since election day (election day)
Gm
The rose colors seem to fade away (fade away)

Bb
The white sheet's coming out to play

This is backwards oh
Eb                                   Bb
'63 I thought the chains were broken and released
Gm
But what about all my brothers in penitentiaries
Bb
We'll be floatin' in oceans before we notice

We're headed for disaster


[Pre-Chorus]
                Ab
Oh say can you see
     Bb            Fm   Cm
But can you really see?


[Chorus]
                            Eb
What does freedom really mean?
                       Fm           Db          Ab Bm Cm
'Cause what I've been sold, ain't what I believe
         Ab             Eb
Maybe freedom ain't for me
                        Fm           Db
'Cause what I've been shown, ain't what I can see


[Bridge]
Bb    Cm
We’ve got
           Ab Eb
One nation
          Db
Under God
    Fm      Ab
Indivisible
                       Cm
It will be washed away
             Bb      Ab          Eb
If we're complacent (if we're complacent)
                  Db
And divided (And divided)
            Fm     Gb
If we're invisible
           F         Cm
We have to ask ourselves


[Chorus]
             Ab           Eb
What does freedom mean to me?
                   Fm      Db      Ab Cm
Is what I've been sold what I believe?
        Eb
Maybe freedom ain't for me
                        Fm            Db         Ab
'Cause what I've been shown, ain't what I can see
                                          Bb   Eb
(Our brothers are bleeding, sisters are weepin' oh)

Maybe freedom ain't for me (Don't you want better)
                        Fm
'Cause what I've been shown (I know we want better)
         Db           Ab
Ain't what I can see (whoa)
                    Cm    Ab  Eb
It ain't what I can see (whoa)
                    Fm
It ain't what I can see
Db                  Ab Bb
It ain't what I can see
