If I Were Free chords

Bb F x
F
If I were free, what I would do
Bb F
I'd run and lock myself away with you
Bb F
And turn a ring, into a key
C7
Oh, I know that's what I'd do,
F
if I were free
Bb F
F
If I were strong, I would be so mild
Bb F
I would be strong enough to love you like a child
Bb F
I would turn a cry, into a song
C7
Oh, I know that's what I would do,
F
if I were strong
Bb F
If I were wise, then I would see
C7 F
What makes you love a foolish man like me?
Bb C Bb F Bb F Bb F
I'd stand by you, just like a tree
C7
Oh, I know that's what I would do,
F
I would chain myself to you
C7 F
I would never leave this room, if I were free
Bb F
F
A line of birds, across the sun
Bb F
Darling it's my fate to follow on the run
Bb F
But girl this running is not for me,
C7 F
I would never run again if I were free.
C7
And here's just what I'd do,
F
I would chain myself to you
C7 F
I would never leave this room, if I was free
Bb F
