Liberty

G         Bm            Cadd9   
Why do we sit down when all 
      G
should be standing?
    G         Bm               
And why do we back down at the 
Cadd9    G
critical moment?
     Em       D            Cadd9 
Like running away from the waves 
       G
of the ocean
   Em           D              
We head for the hills with the 
Cadd9        G
high tide approaching
   Am          Bm           Cadd9 D
As sand slips away from the castle.

          G             Bm     
When it's time to stand upright, 
       Cadd9     G
then why do we falter?
     G           Bm             
Like placing our freedom on the 
Cadd9       G
sacrificial altar
        Em           D       
We hold tight to our fears and 
    Cadd9       G
defend our oppressors
      Em              D      
As we fight for their lies and 
    Cadd9         G
become the transgressors
   Am               Bm            
As pacifists transform to violent 
   Cadd9 D
aggressors.

    G          D                  
But I'm only a stranger here, and 
      Em                     Cadd9
I'm a long, long way from my home,
         G                         
And they say I can't change all the
 D
 things I find strange,
    Em                   Cadd9
For what can one man do alone?
       Em           D       Cadd9
I say, what can one man do alone?

G           Bm            Cadd9 
When is the right time to stand 
       G
up for freedom?
         G           Bm            
Could it be when you start to fear 
Cadd9    G
creating children

         Em        D            
Who'll inherit the pain and the 
Cadd9        G
debt of this nation
       Em            D        
And be slaves to the banks that 
        Cadd9   G
cause hyperinflation
        Am                   Bm   
Who are masters of commerce, lies,
              Cadd9   D
 and bad legislation? Woah!

       G             Bm        
If you looked in the eyes of a 
Cadd9          G
thousand young children
        G         Bm            
Through fences of razors, their 
Cadd9       G
innocence stolen
       Em           D      Cadd9 
As the red flag of tyranny flies 
       G
in the open
   Am               Bm      Cadd9
Is that when you'll finally 
   D
notice? Woah, wo-o-oah!

    G          D                  
But I'm only a stranger here, I'm 
  Em                     Cadd9
a long, long way from my home
         G                         
And they say I can't change all the
 D
 things I find strange,
    Em                   Cadd9
For what can one man do alone?
     Em           D       Cadd9
Yes, what can one man do alone?

    Am              Bm            
I'm only a stranger looking to 
         Cadd9               G  D
find better nature in my fellow man
         Bm                     
But they keep telling me it's a 
Cadd9                      Em    
sin to be free, and that's more 
        D          Cadd9
than I'm willing to stand

G              Bm          Cadd9
Where will you be when the order
    G
 is given
   G           Bm           Cadd9
To censor your mind as free 
        G
speech is forbidden
   Em          D              
As martyrs for peace from the 
Cadd9         G
world will be driven
 Em         D          Cadd9     
Away by the sound of a bellowing 
G
thunder
    Am                Bm          
And choke on the blood of a dream 
      Cadd9   D
going under

   G        Bm          
As arrogant men tear up our 
Cadd9     G
constitution
         G       Bm         
And from ev'ry direction we cry 
Cadd9   G
revolution
Em         D          
Standing together and without 
Cadd9      G
permission
Em           D            Cadd9 
Soldiers for Truth in the War of
    G
 Attrition
    Am                Bm     
The love of our country as our 
      Cadd9   D
ammunition? Woah, wo-o-oah!

    G          D                  
But I'm only a stranger here, I'm 
  Em                     Cadd9
a long, long way from my home
        G                      
And I'm going to change all the 
 D
things I find strange
    Em                Cadd9
For I am not one man alone

G              D               
Yes I'm only a stranger, I'm a 
Em                     Cadd9
long, long way from my home
        G                      
And I'm going to change all the 
 D
things I find strange
    Em                   Cadd9
For I know that I'm not alone
    Em      D        Cadd9
Yes I know, I'm not alone
     G
Not alone
