Chorus:
      E G A F#m A B
I'm free.
      E G A F#m A B
I'm free.
      G      A         D
And freedom tastes of reality.
      E G A F#m A B
I'm free.
      E G A F#m A B
I'm free.
         G           A             B
And I'm waiting for you to follow me.

     Bm
If I told you what it takes to reach the highest high
       G               A              D
You'd laugh and say, "Nothing's that simple."
    Bm
But you've been told many times before,
Messiahs pointed to the door
 G              A                 B
No one had the guts to leave the temple.

Chorus
