John Denver — I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel to Be Free
A#m
And I wish I knew how
DEA
It would feel to be free
ADAD
I wish that I could break
EB7E
All the chains holding me
AC#7F#mA
And I wish I could say
DEA
All the things that I'd like to say
AC#7A#m
Say 'em loud say 'em clear
DEA
For the whole round world to hear
AC#7F#mA
I wish I could share
DEA
All the love that's in my heart
ADADEB7E
Remove every doubt that keeps us apart
AC#7F#mA
And I wish you could know
DEA
What it means to be me
C#7F#m
Then you'd see and agree
ADEA
Every man should be free
AC#7F#mA
I wish I could live
DEA
Like I'm longin' to live
ADAD
I wish that I could give
EB7E
All I'm longin' to give
AC#7F#A
And I wish I could do
DEA
All the things that I'd like to do
AC#7F#m
You know there still is quite a few
A
Yes Sir...
DEA
And I'm way way over due
AC#7F#mA
I wish I could be
DEA
like a bird up in the sky
ADAD
How sweet it would be
EB7E
If I found out I could fly
AC#7F#mA
I'd soar up to the sun
DEA
And look down upon the sea
AC#7F#m
And I sing because I know
ADE
How it feels to be
AC#7F#m
And I sing because I know
ADE
How it feels to be
AC#7F#m
And I sing because I know
ADEA
How it feels to be free
ACFAm
Yeah!
