---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "That's freedom" by John Farnham. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Tim Norton - Australia. Email: t_n46@hotmail.com Tuning: standard EADGBE This is the album version from "Chain Reaction" 1990, although I have also tabbed out live solo performed by Jack Jones (Irwin Thomas) from the 1990 Melbourne "Chain reaction" (on DVD). The background power chords are noted at the bottom of the page. Great song. Good luck and enjoy!
