Key: G
Introduction: G
G
I've got leather on my shoes,
C G
And I've got a dream to live,
Em G
There is nothing left to lose,
C D
So I'm going,
G
I've got a suitcase here in my hand,
C G
And I've got a hungry heart,
C D G
And I'm going to join the millions,
C D G D
There before me, on the freedom road,
G
No-one's coming to my door,
C G
And all my friends have gone,
Em G
There's no work here anymore,
C D
It's deserted,
G
And though I know I hate to leave,
C G
From this land that I love,
C D G
There's a new tomorrow waiting,
C D G
Yes it's shining on the freedom road,
C D G
On the freedom road,
Em Bm
Oh sometimes it's going to be lonely,
C D G
Sometimes it will be sad,
B Em
But I've got to keep on going,
Am D
Until I hold that promised land in the palm of my hand,
G
Nothing ventured, nothing gained or won,
C G
Without a hard fight,
Em G
We would never reach the sun,
C D
Without trying,
G
And when we're a million miles from home,
C G
Out in the starry night,
C D G
We will see we're not alone,
C D Em
In the heavens, out on freedom road,
C D G D
Out on freedom road,
D G D
Out on freedom road,
D G D
Out on freedom road,
