The Road To Freedom Acoustic Live Chords

(ver. 1)
Chris De Burgh
[Intro]
Dm

[Verse 1]
Dm
I feel the wind blowing through my doorway,
Dsus2
it's telling me that the summer's gone,
Bb             Dm               C                Dm    Dsus2
and the winter waits in shadow, waiting with the storm.

[Verse 2]
Dm
I am old and my bones are weary,
Dsus2
and my son, he is all I have,
    Bb             Dm                 C               Dm
but he has gone to fight for freedom, leaving with my heart.

[Pre-Chorus]
C                  F                Gm                A
All my life I have loved this land, worked it with my hands

[Chorus]
             Bb               F         C       Am C     Dm
But can this freedom send the rain when seed is in the ground?
           Bb             F        Bb           A
Can this freedom heal the pain and bring my boy back to me again?
Dm             Bb         C     Am      Dm              Dm
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,        oh, oh.    (x2)

[Verse 3]
Dm
I watched them sail from the rocks below me,
Dm
'twas like the sea in its endless rage,
Bb                C        Dm     C               Dm
many fall on the road to freedom, dying on the stones.

[Pre-Chorus]
C                  F                Gm               A
All my life I have loved this land, worked it with my hands,

[Chorus]
             Bb               F         C       Am C     Dm
But can your freedom send the rain when seed is in the ground?
           Bb             F          Bb          A
Can your freedom heal the pain and bring my boy back to me again?
      Dm        Bb        C      Am       Dm
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,        oh, oh.
      Dm        Bb        C      Am       Bb           Dm
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,        oh, oh. - - - Oh oh.

[Verse 4]
Dm
Late last night, as the world was sleeping,
Dsus2
I dreamed my boy, he was calling out,
     Bb              Dm
'Cos he was lost in some dark forest,
     C        Am       Bb    C              Dm
and snow was falling down, falling on the ground.

[Outro]
      Dm        Bb        C     Am      Dm
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,        oh, oh.
