Jefferson Airplane - Freedom Chords

[Intro]
Gm
 
 
[Verse 1]
Gm                 F                 Eb
Oh I know they say someday time will show me
          D        Gm        F       Eb       D
How to be so cool, someday
Gm                           F
   But what about right now?
                       Eb                               D
Please someone tell me... what do I do while I'm waiting
             Gm  F  Eb      D
Waiting to be so... so cool, someday
Eb                   F
I know I'm not alone
Eb                      F
You know just how I feel
  Gm                        Eb         Cm           F
We both know the rules, but who really knows how to play this game?
Eb                 F
No one will always win
Eb                   F
Good losers hide the pain
         Gm                 Eb          Cm           F
They say everything's fine, no one will hear them complain
 
 
[Verse 2]
      Gm                 Dm
But behind those smiles, so much purple rain
      C                  Eb                         D
It's a wonder anybody ever comes out sane, but they do
                 Gm       F     C     D
And freedom it's all up to you
         Gm                          Dm
When you're by yourself you get that silent noise
C                        Eb                           D
Inside your mind, all the party boys trying to fill up all the empty holes
             Gm      F      C      D
Don't let one, be her soul
 
 
[Chorus]
Gm    Eb   F
 Freedom, now you're on your own
Gm  Eb                F
 Freedom, or does it really mean you're just all alone
Gm    Eb           F
 Freedom, either way it's gonna take you home
       Gm    F   Eb
It just takes you by the hand and says
        D
Now it's time to grow
 
 
[Verse 3]
Gm                         Dm
 So my friend you're gonna be alright
               C                               Eb                D
Seems like it's all uphill, but then that's the only way to get high
             Gm           F      C      D
Someday your soul is gonna fly
Gm                                  Dm
 But don't look back 'cause that's a waste of time
    C                              Eb
And right now's the time for you to look inside
           D           Gm             F       C       D
And you'll see love, oh love has never gone away, no
 
 
[Chorus]
Gm    Eb            F
 Freedom, I've been standing still so long
Gm    Eb    F
 Freedom, I almost forgot you had a song
Gm    Eb             F
 Freedom, shine your light and let us begin
    Gm        F           Eb              D
 Just take me in your arms... I want to be free again
 
 
[Outro]
