[Verse 1]

Freedom rider on a midnight cruise
On my way, I got nothing to lose

Sister mercy gonna take my hand
Lead me over to the promised land

But you better not set your sights on me

'Cause it just might spoil your victory

|D D E~~~~~~~~~|

[Verse 2]
(A - on the bass only)
We walked the ground of ancient ones
Lit the fire with the rising sun

You and me, we got a full on rage
Won't get fooled, no I won't be caged

|G# A~~~|G# A~~~ D A |

Make love not war was your claim to fame

|D D A~~~~~~|

Now you're takin' me down, well I won't be tamed
