Am              C
It's been a long time since we talked
            Am
Call me back when you're free
                C
I left him a voicemail that reads


[Verse 1: RAYE]
           G
"Dear, grandad
It's been so many months that I haven't called
C
 Seems as always something more important on my to do list
G
 All that I'm missing, chasing everything I lack, grandad
C
 Seems I dwell on what I don't have instead of what I do
        G
And it's weird that I wear lipstick and put a kiss on the back of my hand
C
 So I can see what my love looks like when I'm alone
G
 And how are you, grandad? Do you get lonely too, grandad?
C                                                           B
 'Cause right now I could use a call home, I just wanna be free (Free)


[Chorus: RAYE, Grandad Michael & Both]
    C
You see? (Free)
                                       G
Like a child, rolling (Running) down a hill (Rolling down a hill)
                          C
In a field of golden and green
                        Em
Where every burden that weighs on me (Ah)
                      D
Will fall away like a soft rain
               G
And fall into a stream (Stream)
                         C
In fields of golden and green (Green)


[Verse 2: RAYE]
                           G
I wanna be rid of the nothingness that waits for me in the living room
        C                                                                 G
Do you still play the piano, Grandad? Play me something, play me Clair de lune
My goodness me, where did all the time go?
C
When did I go from being a kid?
                                        G
My mum tucking me into to bed, to this grown up Grandad (Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun)
Is this as good as it gets? (Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun)
C
 My other pillows never touched, it gathers dust and yet (Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun)
G
 I'll pray to Jesus that this sinking feeling won't succeed (Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun)
C
 And I'll have a zest for life like when I was 18 (Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun)


[Chorus: RAYE & Grandad Michael]
    G
You see? (You see?; Free)
                 C
I just wanna be free (I just wanna be free; Free)
                    G
Free of every single care (Every single care)
                         C
In a field of golden and red
                      Em
And every burden that weighs on me (Ah)
                      D
Will fall away like a soft rain
                  G
And fall into a stream (Stream)
                         C
In fields of golden and green (Green)


[Verse 3: RAYE, Grandad Michael & Both]
Grandad
G                                             C
Hello, Rachel, seems to been a while since we last spoken
             G
There's no today passes by when I don't think of you
          C
You asked me if I ever get lonely
                          G
You can feel lonely in a crowded room
                                            C
Spoken like a true poet, grandad is a songwriter, you see?
                                             G
We were both born little with big dreams and he'd tell me stories
                             C
How back in his day, he (I) wrote and he (I) wrote till his (My) hands wrecked with pain
       Em                                                          D
And he said something to me and brought these tears to my eyes, he said
Who will hear my songs when I die?
       G
And I told him, "Grandad, so long as God gives me life
  C                                                   G
I will practice your song and I will give it my best try"


[Chorus: RAYE]
G
See? (Free)
                 C
I just wanna be free, yeah (Free)
              G
Free of every single care (Every single care)
                         C
In a field of golden and red
                      Em
And every burden that weighs on me (Ah)
                      D
Will fall away like a soft rain
                  G
And fall into a stream (Stream)
                         C
In fields of golden and green (Green)
                       G    F C
In fields of golden and (Free)


[Outro: RAYE & Grandad Michael]
              D G
I don't wanna be crying (Won't be crying no more)
    F                 C
(No more, no more, no more, no more)
  G                  G F   C
I just wanna be (I'm joyful)
                   G
(I don't wanna feel sad no more)
                       F    C
I don't want to be sad no more
               G
I just wanna be free (For music is medicine, as you cried from your soul)
N.c
I don't wanna be (I'm crying)
I don't want to be crying (As you set sail with your tent, will you tore up the world?)
I don't wanna be sad no more (No more, no more, no more, no more)
I just want to live glory love (And never forget, my love, you'll always be grandad's
Little girl)
