Freedom Johnnys Song

 F                                 
Johnny's got a family of five, and 
                          Bb
he works for the state
F                                 
He got debts that are piling high,
                          Dm
 and an old Chevrolet
 C
Willie on the dash playin' tunes
                        F    
Smells like grass 'cause he's 
covered in June
     Bb

        C
Picking up extra cash, mowing lawns 
with his kids


[Verse 2]
    F                            
Stained sneakers walk through the 
church as they kneel down to pray
    Bb

      F                            
Sayin', "Please Lord, have pity on 
                                Dm
us, take our troubles away
       C
These seeds that we're plantin' with
 you
            F                      
We hope one day, your Lord will 
                              Bb
come true"
    C
I remember еven right now that look 
on his face


[Chorus]
                       F           
So we'd gеt high and we'd ramble
   Am

       Bb                       F
Get drunk and we'd gamble
      Bb                       F
Teenagers cruisin' at 75
     Dm                            C
Singin' "Sweet Home Alabama"
          F                    Am
Stay out all damn weekend
     Bb                        F
Sundays are for sleeping
       Bb                          
Nobody leaving this planet alive
    F

Mom says she gonna enlist, and the 
                           Bb
Corps pays for school
        F                          
They'll have more money they could 
work with if she just had the tools
     Dm

      C
John says, "What you think's best
        F                        
I'll work doubles and make up the 
            Bb
rest"
        C
Still drown in college debt

I'll never forgive or forget


[Chorus]
        F

Workin' in the slammer

Went through hell together

They'd die for each other

When they were younger like

        Dm                      
Like you couldn't blow out their

Stay out all damn weekend
