Gm
I see it all before me
F
My past of restless wonder
Bb
My days and nights of torment
D
A world of misery
Gm
The bonds of retribution
Bb
Now laid so carefully
Bb
I cannot shed my pain
Eb
So easily


[Chorus]

G                  F  C
My spirit's broken
G                  F  C
No will to live
G                  F  C
My body's all aching
G                  F  C
My hands are tied
G                  F  C
I need my freedom
G                  F  C
Not your sympathy
G                  F  C
You, you needn't love me
G                  F  C
Just set me free
G                  F  C
Come on, come on, set me free
       Gm       F
Set me free


[Verse 2]
Gm
Is there a way out for me?
F
I kneel before you, helpless
Bb
Is there somebody out there
D
To take a chance on me?
Gm
I don't pretend to virtue
F
I don't ask anything
Bb
But if you want to help me
Eb
My freedom's everything, now


[Chorus]
G                  F  C
My spirt's broken
G                  F  C
No will to live
G                  F  C
My body's all aching
G                  F  C
My hands are tied
G                  F  C
If you want to help
G                  F  C
Please tell me if you can
G                  F  C
What good is retributio
G                  F  C
Without a helping hand
G                  F  C
I need my freedom
G                  F  C
Nopt just sympathy
G                  F  C
Look you need a loving
