Simple Song Of Freedom

G Am  F G C

C               G              C
Come and sing a simple song of freedom
F                   G            C
Sing it like you've never sung before
G                   Am
Let it fill the air, tell the people everywhere
F              G                  C
We, the people here, don't want a war

C                G                 C
Hey there Mister Black Man can you hear me
F                 G               C
I don't want your diamond or your game
G                Am
I just want to be someone known to you as me
F                 G                 C
And I will bet my life you want the same

C               G              C
Come and sing a simple song of freedom
F                   G            C
Sing it like you've never sung before
G                   Am
Let it fill the air, tell the people everywhere
F              G                  C
We, the people here, don't want a war

C             G               C
Seven hundred million are you listening
F                G               C
most of what you read is made of lies
G                  Am
Speaking one to one ain't it everybody's sun
   F              G               C
To wake to in the morning when we rise

C               G              C
Come and sing a simple song of freedom
F                   G            C
Sing it like you've never sung before
G                   Am
Let it fill the air, tell the people everywhere
F              G                  C
We, the people here, don't want a war

C             G                 C
No doubt some folks enjoy doing battle
F                G                   C
Like presidents, prime ministers and kings
F                           Am
So let us build them shelves so they might fight among themselves
F               G                 C
And leave us be those who want to sing

C               G              C
Come and sing a simple song of freedom
F                   G            C
Sing it like you've never sung before
G                   Am
Let it fill the air, tell the people everywhere
F              G                  C
We, the people here, don't want a war
