(Verse 1)

    G#
  I wish  I knew how, it would feel    to be free

    D#7
  I wish I could break, all the chains holding me

    G#
  I wish I could see,   everything  I had to see

          G#
  Sing it loud,    sing it clear, for the whole round world to hear



(Verse 2)

    G#
  I wish I could share, all the love that's in my heart

    D#7
  Remove all the bars, that keep us apart

    G#
  I wish you knew, how it would feel    to be me

             G#
  Then you'd see,    and agree, everyone   should be free

(Verse 3)

    G#
  I wish I could give, all I'm long---ing to give

    D#7
  I wish I could live, like I'm longing to live

    G#
  I wish I could do everything that I could do

             G#
  Though I'm way     overdue, I'd be start--ing  new



(Verse 4)

    G#
  I wish I could be like a bird   in the sky

      D#7
  How sweet it would be if I found I could fly

      G#
  I'd soar to the sun and look down  at the sea

          Cm7/F
  And I'd sing,    cause I know *echo and repeated*
