             A'                 D'

                 A                                  D'
And don't worry sister, say your prayers and sleep tight

           D     E                   A
Lend your voices only to sounds of freedom
D             E                     A             E          F#m
   No longer lend you strength to that which you wish to be free from

Fill your lives with love and bravery
               E             A
And you shall lead a life uncommon


                A
I've heard your anguish
                         D
I've heard your hearts cry out
        A                                      D
We are tired, we are weary, but we aren't worn out
                A                E
set down your chains, till only faith remains
                A
Set down your chains


               D     E                   A
And lend your voices only to sounds of freedom
D             D                      A
   No longer lend your strength to that
           E          F#m
which you wish to be free from
                                D
Fill your lives with love and bravery
               E             A
And you shall lead a life uncommon


            D                    A
There are plenty of people who pray for peace
         D                              A
But if praying were enough it would have come to be
 D                 A
Let your words enslave no one
         E
and the heavens will hush themselves to hear
     D
Our voices ring out clear
                 A       E
with sounds of freedom
            A        E
sounds of freedom


                 A               D
Come on you unbelievers, move out of the way
            A                                     D
there is a new army coming and we are armed with faith
        A             E
And to live, we must give
    A
To live


              D     E                   A
And lend our voices only to sounds of freedom
D             E                     A            E          F#m
   No longer lend our strength to that which we wish to be free from
                                D
Fill your lives with love and bravery
              E
And we shall lead...


              D     E                   A
And lend our voices only to sounds of freedom
D             E                     A            E          F#m
   No longer lend our strength to that which we wish to be free from
                                D
Fill your lives with love and bravery
              E             A           D   A
And we shall lead a life uncommon
