Em D C
There's colors on the street
Em D C
Red, white and blue
Em D C
People shufflin' their feet
E D C
People sleepin' in their shoes
Em
But there's a warnin' sign
D C
on the road ahead
Em
There's a lot of people sayin'
D C
we'd be better off dead
Em
Don't feel like Satan,
D C
but I am to them
Em
So I try to forget it,
D C
any way I can.
[Chorus]
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
[Verse]
Em D C
I see a woman in the night
Em D C
With a baby in her hand
Em D C
Under an old street light
Em D C
Near a garbage can
Em
Now she puts the kid away,
D C
and she's gone to get a hit
Em
She hates her life,
D C
and what she's done to it
Em
There's one more kid
D C
that will never go to school
Em
Never get to fall in love,
D C
never get to be cool.
[Chorus]
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
[Verse]
Em D C
We got a thousand points of light
Em D C
For the homeless man
Em
We got a kinder, gentler,
D C
Machine gun hand
Em
We got department stores
D C
and toilet paper
Em
Got styrofoam boxes
D C
for the ozone layer
Em
Got a man of the people,
D C
says keep hope alive
Em
Got fuel to burn,
D C
got roads to drive.
[Chorus]
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rocking in the free world
