[Verse 1]
E C#m B A
Saw a bird with a tear in his eye
E B E
Walking to New Orleans my oh my
E C#m B A
Hey now Bird, wouldn't you rather die?
E B E
Than walk this world when you're born to fly?
A B
If I was the sun, I'd look for shade
E E/F# E/G# A
If I was a bed, I would stay un made
C#m B A E
If I was a river I'd run uphill
A B E A
If you call me you know I will
C#m B E
If you call me you know I will
[Chorus]
E B E E D A
Ooo Freedom - Ooo Liberty
E B E
O. . .Leave me alone
C#m B A B E A
To find my own way home
C#m B A B E
To find my own way home
[Verse 2]
E C#m B A
Say what I mean and I don't give a damn
E B E
I do believe and I am who I am
E C#m B A
Hey now Mama come and take my hand
E B E
Whole lotta shakin' all over this land
A B
If I was an eagle I'd dress like a duck
E C#m B A
Crawl like a lizard and honk like a truck
C#m B A E
If I get a notion I'll climb this tree
A B E A
or chop it down and you can't stop me
C#m B E
Chop it down and you can't stop me
[Chorus]
E B E E D A
Ooo Freedom - Ooo Liberty
E B E
O. . .Leave me alone
C#m B A B E A
To find my own way home
C#m B A B E
To find my own way home
[Verse 3]
E C#m B A
Went to the well but the water was dry
E B E
Dipped my bucket in the clear blue sky
E C#m B A
Looked in the bottom and what did I see?
E B E
The whole damned world looking back at me
A B
If I was a bottle I'd spill for love
E C#m B A
Sake of mercy I would kill for love
C#m B A E
If I was a liar I'd lie for love
A B E A
Sake of my baby I'd die for love
C#m B E
Sake of my baby I'd die for love
[Chorus]
E B E E D A
Ooo Freedom - Ooo Liberty
E B E
O. . .Leave me alone
C#m B A B E A
To find my own way home
C#m B A B E
To find my own way home
