recorded by Jim Reeves written by Don Robertson and Lou Hersher C E7 You're free to go darling F C I'll break the ties that bind G7 C Somehow the dreams we planned have gone astray G7 C E7 You're free to go darling F C So ease your worried mind G7 C I'll never stand in your way F C There's no ring or shining gold G7 C So strong that it can hold D7 G7 A heart that longs to be free C E7 The lips are cold darling F C That once said yes to me G7 The tender glow is gone I know C You're free to go repeat #2
