"This next one's called Freebird II!"

Most of this song is the same chord progression.

Intro:
C#C#  BB  F#F#
C#C#


Verse 1:
C#C#              BB
I've learned how not to miss the age of tenderness
   F#F#           C#C#
That I am so lucky to have seen once
C#C#               BB
And now that I've become older I've learned how to brush over
F#F#           C#C#
My history and how it's sequenced

C#C#          BB
When I think about you I see a person who
F#F#          C#C#
Hasn't existed for a long time
C#C#            BB
Before you started using, before I starting choosing
F#F#             C#C#
To do the same thing for the same reasons

C#C#             BB
The first name I called you is not a name at all
F#F#          C#C#
More of a duty than a function
C#C#          BB
Often an execution, often with deep confusion of
F#F#          C#C#
"??Who was I when that name was just mine?"

Instrumental Break:
C#C#  BB  F#F#
C#C#


Verse 2:
C#C#             BB
Like a serpent charmer negotiating harm
F#F#              C#C#
I live with a basket of your silence
C#C#           BB
And as the years record I can feel it growing bored
F#F#              C#C#
But I keep the top on in the meantime

C#C#            BB
When I pass my reflection there isn't any question of
F#F#           C#C#
Where the person in it came from
C#C#               BB
When I catch myself thinking and hear the voice that speaks inside
F#F#          C#C#
I know where I got my brain from


Bridge:
A augmentedA        C#C#        G#G#
Every step I've strayed from and followed

F#F#      C#C#   G#G#
Led me to the same location

A augmentedA        C#C#      G#G#
Every act I've forsake and borrowed

F#F#      C#C#
A augmentedA delivery to now

F#F#           C#C#   A augmentedA BB F#F#
And I've never wondered how I came to


Ending:
C#C#     BB      F#F#     C#C#
Be, I feel free like you promised I'd be
C#C#     BB      F#F#     C#C#
Free, I feel free like you promised I'd be
C#C#     BB      F#F#     C#C#
Free, I feel free like you promised I'd be
C#C#     BB      F#F#     C#C#
Free, I feel free like you promised I'd be

A augmentedA  BB F#F#
