[Intro]
G  G
  
[Verse 1]
          G                  G
I've been lost and I've been down
        G                   G
I found love and watched it drown
   C             C
In Freedom Town
   G             G
Oh Freedom Town

[Verse 2]
G                G
Empty factories, crowded beds
       G                  G
No-one holdin' the man to what he said
   C             C
In Freedom Town
     G             G
Yeah Freedom Town

[Verse 3]
G                        G
I could sit and watch it burn itself
G                      G
  Or I could walk away   from this hell
C             C
Alright
   G             G
Oh Freedom Town

[Chorus]
    Em          Em  
How high up you wanna go?
    G              G
How long does your river flow?
    Am             Am
How strong do your roots grow?
              Em   D    G
Gotta make it over   yonder

[Verse 4]
        G                              G
There's flags on main street from last week's parade
     G                           G
Road blocks and raids taking our friends away
     C             C
From Freedom Town
     G             G
Ohhh Freedom Town

[Verse 5]
        G                         G
They're building walls a thousand miles wide
     G                     G
With hate and fear for the other side
   C             C
Of Freedom Town      they say "Keep out!"
G               G
  Freedom Town

[Verse 6]
   G                     G
To all the people that I I'll never know
G               G
I love you just like my own
C             C
Freedom Town
            G                    G
Ohhhhhh, so long, Freedom Town


[Chorus]
    Em          Em  
How high up you wanna go?
    G              G
How long does your river flow?
    Am             Am
How strong do your roots grow?
              Em   D    G
Gotta make it over   yonder

    Em          Em  
How high up you wanna go?
    G              G
How long does your river flow?
    Am             Am
How strong do your roots grow?
              Em   D    G
Gotta make it over   yonder

    Em          Em  
How high up you wanna go?
    G              G
How long does your river flow?
    Am             Am
How strong do your roots grow?
              Em   D    G
Gotta make it over   yonder

    Em          Em  
How high up you wanna go?
    G              G
How long does your river flow?
    Am             Am
How strong do your roots grow?
              Em   D    G
Gotta make it over   yonder

    Em          Em  
How high up you wanna go?
    G              G
How long does your river flow?
    Am             Am
How strong do your roots grow?
              Em   D    G
Gotta make it over   yonder
