[Verse]
EJohnny and I, in 20A09
Lived at his folk's house for frEee
OBn the outskirts of town, 1A2 miles down
A hoBuse on LinC#mcoln CrAeek
[Verse 2]
We calEled it the farm
From the broAken down barn
Took wood and made fires in the stEove
We got drBunk, we got Ahigh
We drank spBiced rum and wine
And liBved like a C#mcouple of kiAds
[Verse 3]
In the piEtch dark night
When I'd tuArn off the lights
Looked up at the phosphorescent stEars
The futBure was bright as the ligAhts in the sky
And juBst as far C#mout of reAach
[Chorus]
SoEmewhere, someone is singing for frBee
A tab and a couple of twC#menties
Is Ball they neAedA  
SoEmewhere, someone is singing for frBeeG#  
Thank god it ain't C#mmeB  
[Verse 4]
JohEnny got married
To his eAx-girlfriend's sister
And they popped out a couple of kiEds
I gueBss he found Jesus
You miAght not believe this
But someBtimes I wiC#msh that I diAd
[Verse 5]
But EI hit the road
For a decAade of shows
Sleeping on the floors and beEds
DozBens of strangers, none boArn in a manger
But Bholy C#mnone the Aless
[Chorus]
SoEmewhere, someone is singing for frBee
A tab and a couple of twenC#mties
Is aBll thAey need
SomEewhere, someone is singing for frBeeG#  
Thank god it ain't C#mme
[Interlude]

[Chorus]
SomEewhere, someone is singing for frBee
A tEab and a couple of twentiesC#m  
Is Ball they neAed
SoEmewhere, someone is singing for frBeeG#  
Thank god it ain't C#mme

C#m

[Verse]

E A

Johnny and I, in 2009

Lived at his folk's house for free

B A

On the outskirts of town, 12 miles down

B C#m A

A house on Lincoln Creek

[Verse 2]

We called it the farm

From the broken down barn

Took wood and made fires in the stove

B A

We got drunk, we got high

We drank spiced rum and wine

B C#m A

And lived like a couple of kids

[Verse 3]

In the pitch dark night

When I'd turn off the lights

Looked up at the phosphorescent stars

B A

The future was bright as the lights in the sky

B C#m A

And just as far out of reach

[Chorus]

E B

Somewhere, someone is singing for free

C#m

A tab and a couple of twenties

B A A

Is all they need

E B G#

Somewhere, someone is singing for free

C#m B

Thank god it ain't me

[Verse 4]

Johnny got married

To his ex-girlfriend's sister

And they popped out a couple of kids

I guess he found Jesus

You might not believe this

B C#m A

But sometimes I wish that I did

[Verse 5]

But I hit the road

For a decade of shows

Sleeping on the floors and beds

B A

Dozens of strangers, none born in a manger

B C#m A

But holy none the less

[Chorus]

E B

Somewhere, someone is singing for free

C#m

A tab and a couple of twenties

B A

Is all they need

E B G#

Somewhere, someone is singing for free

C#m

Thank god it ain't me

[Interlude]

B E A B A

[Chorus]

E B

Somewhere, someone is singing for free

E C#m

A tab and a couple of twenties

B A

Is all they need

E B G#

Somewhere, someone is singing for free

C#m

Thank god it ain't me
