Intro: G

          G
I've got leather on my shoes,
                 C       G
And I've got a dream to live,
          Em              G
There is nothing left to lose,
        C    D
So I'm going,
            G
I've got a suitcase here in my hand,
                C      G
And I've got a hungry heart,
         C        D        G
And I'm going to join the millions,
         C      D                   G D
There before me, on the freedom road,

          G
No-one's coming to my door,
             C           G
And all my friends have gone,
            Em           G
There's no work here anymore,
        C     D
It's deserted,
               G
And though I know I hate to leave,
           C           G
From this land that I love,
           C     D      G
There's a new tomorrow waiting,
           C    D                   G 
Yes it's shining on the freedom road,
C         D         G
 On the freedom road,

        Em                     Bm
Oh sometimes it's going to be lonely,
     C        D       G
Sometimes it will be sad,
          B              Em
But I've got to keep on going,
         Am                 D
Until I hold that promised land in the palm of my hand,

         G
Nothing ventured, nothing gained or won,
           C    G
Without a hard fight,
          Em              G
We would never reach the sun,
          C    D
Without trying,
                  G
And when we're a million miles from home,
             C     G
Out in the starry night,
         C         D    G
We will see we're not alone,
        C      D                   Em
In the heavens, out on freedom road,
C         D         G D
 Out on freedom road,

 Out on freedom road,
