If I Were Free chords
Jesse Winchester *
Bb F x
F
If I were free, what I would do
BbF
I'd run and lock myself away with you
BbF
And turn a ring, into a key
C7
Oh, I know that's what I'd do,
F
if I were free
BFF
If I were strong, I would be so mild
BbF
I would be strong enough to love you like a child
BbF
I would turn a cry, into a song
C7
Oh, I know that's what I would do,
F
if I were strong
BbF
If I were wise, then I would see
C7F
What makes you love a foolish man like me?
BbCBbFBbFBbF
I'd stand by you, just like a tree
C7
Oh, I know that's what I would do,
F
I would chain myself to you
C7F
I would never leave this room, if I were free
BFF
A line of birds, across the sun
BbF
Darling it's my fate to follow on the run
BbF
But girl this running is not for me,
C7F
I would never run again if I were free.
C7
And here's just what I'd do,
F
I would chain myself to you
C7F
I would never leave this room, if I was free
BF
