F

Verse 1:
F                    C              F
If you hear a voice call out your name
            A#add9    F /A   F /G   F
Say you can stop yourself from falling
F                      C                F
And if he strikes you in his fear and shame
        A#add9     F /A  F /G  F
You can leave him to  his ruin

Verse 2:
F                             C       F
If your dreams they wake you in the night
        A#add9 F /A  F /G   F
And your heart it is a pounding
F                      C             F
If you cry out as you wake in your fright
       A#add9    F /A  F /G  F
And the wind it is  a   howling

Chorus:
Dm7                      A#add9   F
Maybe it’s time to find another place
Dm7                Gm          C
Where nobody even knows your face
Dm7                  A#add9 F
There is no need to be  afraid
        A#add9 F /A  F /G  F
For its only  freedom calling

Chorus:
F                       C    F
If your tears begin to overflow
       A#add9   F /A   F /G  F
As you walk against the undertow
F                    C    F
There is no need to be afraid
       A#add9 F /A  F /G   F
For its only freedom calling

Verse 3:
F                            C     F
If you're sad 'cause you're all alone
         A#add9       F /A  F /G   F
And your hands they  are a   shaking
F                            C           F
And your miracle cure's not working anymore
        A#add9        F /A    F /G  F
And the flood bank’s close to  breaking

Chorus:
Dm7                    A#add9        F
Suddenly you're on an open unknown road
Dm7                     Gm         C
Passing all the heavy, long wide loads
Dm7                      A#add9  F
It is time to make your great escape
            A#add9     F /A  F /G  F
And you can hear your freedom calling

Verse 4:
F                        C       F
I want to dive into the sea of love
       A#add9      F /A  F /G  F
But my knees they are  a  quaking
F                      C    F
I can see myself high up above
            A#add9   F /A  F /G   F
And there's no time left for faking

Chorus:
Dm7                  A#add9    F
I no longer need to understand
Dm7                  Gm    C
What it is to truly be a man
Dm7                        A#add9 F
Only when I gave up on my masterplan
      A#add9     F /A  F /G   F
Did I then hear freedom calling
      A#add9     F /A  F /G   F
Did I then hear freedom calling
