Verse 1
F
And then I rose
Am
to the top of the world
And I saw that I was blessed
C
Am
F
I saw that it was built on the backs
of the poor and the oppressed
C
D
I saw this endless spinning
Am
D
Of ending up back at the beginning
G
C
F
Of headlong races to where we sat
But oh, the places we could go
C
if the world was flat
Am
And I was tired and defeated
C
F
With nothing turned out as I thought
Am
F
But if I always do what
I've always done
C
D
Then I only get what I always got
Am
D
I saw the masses yawning stolen breaths
C
F
That they might breathe the next
Tall drinks, queen ants,
C
and half -mast cigarettes
Am
The same lives, the same pain
Lay like embers in the rain
G
Em
I saw all things invisible that bind me
When Lady Luck was smiling
It was that the guy behind me
Green and brown girls of the sea
E
Take me, but don't ever wake me

Am
And I saw my supposed enemy
C
D
But I looked exactly like him
F
I saw the boat sinking
Am
So I got out and learned how to swim
D
I saw the sorrow of the centuries
Am
C
F
And saw first smoke from the stacks
I saw bullets being buried
Am
F
in our old man's backs
Am
I saw the poetry of the prophet
G
But they wallpapered over it, they did
The same words written years ago
on the back of my eyelids
Em
I saw tax collectors as
national protectors
E
Tables being turned,
books being burned
And bodies washing in from the sea
Am
You free
C
You wanna be free
D
You wanna be free
F
Why are you living in chains?

You could change it so bad
C
We're nothing but a worm

You want to be free
