DmDm FF C majorC G minorGm
Verse 1:
DmDm FF
I came into this earth free and from the sun
C majorC G minorGm
I never thought I’d ever have to take my pride and run
DmDm FF
Illusion is the truth blurred like a bullet from a gun
C majorC G minorGm
United we are stronger ‘cause together we are one
DmDm
If I could take the pain away
FF
Built up from yesterday’s mistakes
C majorC
We wouldn’t have to struggle
G minorGm
Just to find a better kinder way
DmDm
We wouldn’t have to prove
FF
Yea our right to choose
C majorC G minorGm
One nation being puppets to the puppet master’s tune
Pre-Chorus:
Bb majorBb C majorC
Open your eyes to see
FF
Come ride this breeze
DmDm
Your mind is free
Bb majorBb C majorC
Above the haze beneath
FF
It’s fine to breathe
DmDm
Unwind and ease
Chorus:
Bb majorBb C majorC
‘Cause life is hard ya know
FF
Whether it’s moving fast or slow
DmDm
Not enough or too much
Bb majorBb
An overflowing empty cup
C majorC
How nice to just run away
FF
And pretend this is every day
DmDm
And the world is filled with love
Bb majorBb
Just until you wake up

Oh oh oh oh
Bb majorBb C majorC
You wake up
Verse 2:
DmDm FF
If I can feel the struggle and I can feel the pain
C majorC G minorGm
Then everyone around me must be feeling just the same
DmDm FF
When life turns into rubble the sinner filled with shame
C majorC G minorGm
And nobody around me seems to wanna take the blame
DmDm
Wish I could say this time is great
FF
Complacent in the coming race
C majorC
Unbalanced and adjusting
G minorGm
While inadequately changing lanes
DmDm
The system is abused
FF
Undocumented proof
C majorC G minorGm
Our sympathy ecstatic to the unrelenting truth
Pre-Chorus:
Bb majorBb C majorC
Open your eyes to see

Your mind is free
