(Intro)

         

         

         

         



(Verse 1) 

                      /        
  I wish  I knew how, it would feel    to be free

                              
  I wish I could break, all the chains holding me

                    /        
  I wish I could see,   everything  I had to see

                                                
  Sing it loud,    sing it clear, for the whole round world to hear



(Verse 2) 

                       /               
  I wish I could share, all the love that's in my heart

                          
  Remove all the bars, that keep us apart

                       /       
  I wish you knew, how it would feel    to be me

                                      
  Then you'd see,    and agree, everyone   should be free



(Guitar Solo) 

         /    

            

         /    

               



(Verse 3)

                      /         
  I wish I could give, all I'm long---ing to give

                              
  I wish I could live, like I'm longing to live

                /           
  I wish I could do everything that I could do

                                  
  Though I'm way     overdue, I'd be start--ing  new



(Verse 4)

                  /      
  I wish I could be like a bird   in the sky

                            
  How sweet it would be if I found I could fly

                      /      
  I'd soar to the sun and look down  at the sea

                       
  And I'd sing,    cause I know *echo and repeated*



(Guitar Solo 2) 

          

          

          

          

          

          

          

          



(Outro)

                   
  I sing because I know

                   
  I sing because I know

                   
  I sing because I know

                 
  Everyone   should be free.
