Capo 2.
[Intro]
Am C G Am
Am C G Am
Am C G Am
Am G Am
N.C.
I want to believe in myself once again
So I dream of a man whose hopes never end
To kiss with a girl who's as lovely as you
I'd give you my heart, if you gave me the truth
[Verse 1]
And Cfor every tear that is lost from an Geye
I'd Edig me a well where nAmo man could destroy
I Cwant to believe in a freedom that's Gbold
But Eall I remember is the freedom of old
[Chorus 1]
AmWell I lCost me Ga wife, Amso I found me a plane
GFlew all the way Amto California
AmThis mesCs in my Ghead iAms a mess getting out
GYa drink too much coffee, I drinAmk too much stout
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
But after a while, when my mouth's not so dry
I'll dance up a storm, sure life's looking fine
But as darkness falls, I return to my bed
Don't ask me more questions, don't fuck with my head
[Chorus 2]
AmI've beeCn down Gin this Amworld, down and almost broken
AmLike thoCusands Gof peopAmle, left standing in their shoe
AmI've beeCn down Gin this Amworld, down and almost broken
AmAs thousands theGy grieve, as thAme Black Friday rule
[Solo]
(mess around on Am)
N.C.
The buildings they shake but my heart it beats still
Oh mother of Jesus, I feel pretty ill
I want to go home where my feet both feel safe
But there ain't no jobs in the old free state
[Verse 3]
(same as verse 1)
So I must remain in my new adopted land
I'm doing the best, Hell I'm doin' all I can
So next time you see me, don't ask for my name
FoEr I am the King and sure long may I reign
