If I were free, what I would do 
    Bb5                            F5
I'd run and lock myself away with you 
           Bb5           F5
And turn a ring, into a key 
      C5                 
Oh, I know that's what I'd do, 
          F5 
if I were free

F5       
If I were strong, I would be so mild 
           Bb5                               F5
I would be strong enough to love you like a child 
               Bb5          F5
I would turn a cry, into a song 
      C5         
Oh, I know that's what I would do, 
          F5
if I were strong 

          Bb5                 F5
If I were wise, then I would see 
     C5                                F5
What makes you love a foolish man like me?
Bb5  C5     Bb5 F5    Bb5          F5 Bb5 F5               
I'd stand by you, just like a tree 
      C5    
Oh, I know that's what I would do, 
        F5 
I would chain myself to you 
  C5                                     F5
I would never leave this room , if I were free

F5
A line of birds, across the sun 
        Bb5                            F5
Darling it's my fate to follow on the run 
              Bb5                 F5
But girl this running is not for me, 
        C5                        F5
I would never run again if I were free. 
    C5
And here's just what I'd do, 
        F5
I would chain myself to you 

        C5                              F5
I would never leave this room , if I was free
