[Verse 1]
G                              C
Please, Captain, let me go downtown
     F             G              
It's Sunday and my friends won't 
   C
be around
     G                      
I've been to church like I'm 
             C
supposed to do
       F              G           
I have prayed that my girl's gonna
          C
 be there too


[Verse 2]
    F C   Dm   C  G
And Jesus said to me
C   G/B Am     G  Am
One day you'll be free
        F          C               
But for now, every Sunday, there's 
G              C
dancing in the square
      F                 C    
We'll sing our father's songs, 
              G              C
there'll be freedom in the air
      G                         C
We'll plant a seed, maybe it'll grow
   F       G               C
So please, Captain, let me go


[Chorus]
      Am        G              C 
And I try and I try, I'm going 
              F
down to Freedom Square

[Verse 3]
       G                           
Well I slaved all week and the day 
          C
has come around
           F                     G
When I can slip these chains and 
             C
lay my burden down
   G                               
On Freedom Square, Old Hannah shine
    C
 on bright
       F               G          
On the working man and make him 
     C
feel alright


[Verse 4]
  F   C     Dm C   G
Today we're on our own
      C  G/B Am G    Am
We're taking it back home
    F               C           G
And up from the plantation, the 
              C
line is coming through
             F               
Like they're dancing in their 
 C             G                C
shackles, the way they used to do
    G                             C
And every step they take is gonna be
    F                G            
One further down the road for you 
    C
and me


[Chorus]
           Am            G        
And that's right, that's right, 
        C               F
I'm going down to Freedom Square
       Am            G             
That's right, that's right, that's 
C
right
           Am               G     
And that's right and that's right,
           C              F
 I'm gonna meet my people there
       Am            G             
That's right, that's right, that's 
C
right


[Chorus]
           Am            G        
And that's right, that's right,

That's right, that's right, that's

           Am               G     
And that's right and that's right,

 I'm gonna meet my people there
