Simple Song of Freedom

G D G Come and sing a simple song of freedom C G Sing it like you've never sung before D Em Let it fill the air, tell the people everywhere C D G We, the people here, don't want a war G D G Hey there Mister Black Man can you hear me C G I don't want your diamond or your game D Em I just want to be someone known to you as me C D G And I will bet my life you want the same (Chorus) G D G Seven hundred million are you listening C G most of what you read is made of lies D Em Speaking one to one ain't it everybody's sun C D G To wake to in the morning when we rise (Chorus) G D G No doubt some folks enjoy doing battle C G Like presidents, prime ministers and kings D Em So let us build them shelves so they might fight among themselves C D G And leave us be those who want to sing (chorus) G D G Come and sing a simple song of freedom C G Sing it like you've never sung before D Em Speaking one to one ain't it everybody's everybody's sun C D G To wake to in the morning when we rise, when we arise D Em Speaking one to one ain't it everybody's sun C D G To wake to in the morning when we arise
