Free as Stone Mary Black (Shane Howard)
Phone calls and taxi rides and somebody's leaving
Mi[C]sunderstandings[Em7] get out of contr[F6/9]ol[G]
An[C]d the rig[Em7]ht words get[F6/9] left and[G] the wrong words get spoken
He's gone[C] but not your pri[Em7]de[F6/9][G]
C G C ( see Tab )
Not much can help the full heart that's breaking
Can't find the words and you can't hide the feelings
And it's down to the bone to the heart of the matter
You're free, free as stone
Look at you now you're the picture of sorrow
[Am]Head in your [Em7]hands like a sc[F6/9]ene from a m[G]ovie
And all of the things that seemed so important
[Am]Are leaves and ar[Em7]e blowing aw[F6/9]ay[G]
Not much can help the full heart that's breaking
Can't find the words and you can't hide the feelings
And it's down to the bone to the heart of the matter
You're free you're free as stone
Walk through this town on a cold sunday morning
[AM]Soldiers in uniform[Em7]s guns in t[F6/9]heir hands[G]
The world all caught up with barbed wire fences
[Am]I'm free I'm free as [Em7]stone[F6/9][G]
Not much can help the full heart that's breaking
Can't find the words and you can't hide the feelings
And it's down to the bone to the heart of the matter
You're free, free as stone
You're fr[C]ee, f[G]ree as st[C]one[Am]
