Capo 3rd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
____Verse: 1
I used to be a rolling stone, you know
If the cause was right
I'd leave to find the answer on the road
I used to be a heart beating for someone
But the times have changed
The less I say the more my work gets done
____Chorus:
'Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom
From the day that I was born I've waved the flag
Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man
Yeah, gave me peace of mind my daddy never had
Philadelphia freedom, shine on me, I love you
Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind
Shine a light, shine a light
Shine a light, won't you shine a light
Phi__la__delphia freedom, I lo_o___ove you, yes I do
____Intro:
____Verse: 2
If you choose to you can live your life alone
Some people choose the city
(Some people choose the city)
Some others choose the good old family home
(Some others choose the good old family home)
I like living easy without family ties (living easy)
Till the whippoorwill of freedom zapped me
Right between the eyes
____Chorus:
'Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom
From the day that I was born I've waved the flag
Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man
Mm-mm, gave me peace of mind my daddy never had
Philadelphia freedom, shine on me, I love you
Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind
Shine a light, shine a light
Shine a light, won't you shine a light
Phi__la__delphia freedom, I lo_o___ove you, yes I do
____Intro:
____Chorus: (2nd. half)
Oh, Philadelphia freedom, shine on me, I love you
Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind
Shine a light, shine a light
Shine a light, won't you shine a light
Phi__la__delphia freedom, I lo_o___ove you
Don't you know I lo_o___ove you, don't you know I lo_o___ove you
Yes I do (Philadelphia freedom) I lo_o___ove you
Yes I do (Philadelphia freedom) know that I lo_o___ove you
Yes I do (Philadelphia freedom) don't you know that I lo_o___ove you
Yes I do (Philadelphia freedom) don't you know that I lo_o___ove you
