Well I heard the bells of freedom once
As I w[F]as coming down the[C] road
[F]Coming down th[C]e road
[C]And I followed that echo wh[F]erever it w[C]ould go
As I was [F]coming down t[C]he road
But there alw[G]ays seemed to b[F]e trouble in [C]my path
I found my han[G]ds tied behind[F] my back[C]
As I was coming[F] down [C]the road
Coming down the[F] road[C]
Well I heard the truth call my name
As I was coming down the road
Coming down the road
And I followed that voice to the valley below
As I was coming down the road
And it took me down a path where I was lost all the time
I found some truth but it could never be mine
As I was coming down the road
Coming down the road
And I saw myself for a second as I really am
As I was coming down the road
And I had to look away in disbelief I suppose
As I was coming down the road
I caught a glimpse of myself as others see me
And I wasnt the fella that I thought I?d be
As I was coming down the road
Coming down the road
I saw you out my window
As you was walking alone
Coming down the road
And I raised my hand as if to say hello
As I was coming down the road
But you didn?t wave back
You just walked on by
Alone by yourself
Till the day you die
And I guess the truth and freedom before us all lies
Somewhere down the road
Somewhere down the road
As I w[F]as coming down the[C] road
[F]Coming down th[C]e road
[C]And I followed that echo wh[F]erever it w[C]ould go
As I was [F]coming down t[C]he road
But there alw[G]ays seemed to b[F]e trouble in [C]my path
I found my han[G]ds tied behind[F] my back[C]
As I was coming[F] down [C]the road
Coming down the[F] road[C]
Well I heard the truth call my name
As I was coming down the road
Coming down the road
And I followed that voice to the valley below
As I was coming down the road
And it took me down a path where I was lost all the time
I found some truth but it could never be mine
As I was coming down the road
Coming down the road
And I saw myself for a second as I really am
As I was coming down the road
And I had to look away in disbelief I suppose
As I was coming down the road
I caught a glimpse of myself as others see me
And I wasnt the fella that I thought I?d be
As I was coming down the road
Coming down the road
I saw you out my window
As you was walking alone
Coming down the road
And I raised my hand as if to say hello
As I was coming down the road
But you didn?t wave back
You just walked on by
Alone by yourself
Till the day you die
And I guess the truth and freedom before us all lies
Somewhere down the road
Somewhere down the road
