...1,2,3,
      F                  Am          C
I almost feel free honey that’s for sure
  F                     Am        C
And I don’t know what I came here for
     F                       Am     C
I ain’t playing games so get off my back
     G                           F          C
If society’s a mansion I want to live in a shack


Verse 1:
               Am                           F
We only had a dollar and someone’s left over food
                     Am                         F
We sat on the street together, We had nothing to lose
                  Am   G   F                 Am   G   C
Not chasing that old-time wind, Chasing that old-time wind

                     Am                          F
We slept in fields together, Underneath the tall trees
                     Am                        F
Hearts as light as a feather, We had no one to please
                  Am   G   F                  Am   G   C
Not chasing that old-time wind, chasing that old-time wind


Chorus:
          F                    Am          C
Well, I almost feel free honey that’s for sure
  F                     Am        C
And I don’t know what I came here for
     F                   Am         C
I ain’t playing games so get off my back
     G                          F           C
If society’s a mansion I want to live in a shack


Verse 2:
                      Am                            F
I can just taste the raw joy, of having nothing but shoes
                 Am                                 F
My guitar on my shoulder, The old man taught us the blues
                  Am  G  F                       Am  G   C
I am free because I can see, the wind won’t be caught by me

                     Am                      F
We were playing our music, right there in Santa Cruz
                       Am                             F
The homeless woman was dancing, so you kicked off your shoes
                    Am   G   F                    Am   G   C
Swayed together and we were free, The wind fell right over me


Chorus:
         F                     Am          C
Well, I almost feel free honey that’s for sure
  F                     Am        C
And I don’t know what I came here for
     F                   Am         C
I ain’t playing games so get off my back
     G                          F           C         C
If society’s a mansion I want to live in a shack


Bridge:
       Dm        F    G             Dm         F          G
Maybe I’ll take off again. Sell my things like I did back then
           Dm       F       G            F          G     C
The first car that takes me in, will be right where I'll begin

        Dm     F     G        Dm     F     G
But wherever I will go, is wherever I will be
          Dm        F        G              F        G         C
So I’ll stay right here with her, Love is real when she’s with me


Chorus:
        F                      Am          C
Well, I almost feel free honey that’s for sure
  F                     Am        C
And I don’t know what I came here for
     F                   Am         C
I ain’t playing games so get off my back
     G                          F           C
