[G]Seventeen, [F]headin' [C]down that road of freedom
[G]Well everybody [F]said "Son, you'll [C]never get nowhere"
[G]With my [F]stubbon ways, well I [C]knew that I would show them
[G]Can't keep somethin' [F]wild locked [C]up in a cage
After [Am]time went by they finally [C]realized I was [D]on my way
Chorus:
[G]Goin' down that [F]two lane road stretched [C]out across the desert
[G]With the [F]hot sun beatin' [C]down on me
[G]I don't know [F]where I'm going or [C]when I'm gonna get there
[G]But when I [F]do it will [C]set my mind at ease
I was [C]born, I was born to be [G]free
Lookin' back now I think about those days
And how that one summer changed everything
But in the back of my mind I could still hear the voices
Reminding me that I did it right there
After time went by they finally realized I was on my way
Chorus
Piano run
Lead solo
After time went by they finally realized I was on my way
