#1.
C                           F    Dm
I'm glad I'm here just like you, and if I say 
           G7   C                              F
a thing or two..that doesn't mean I'm all that mad.
Dm                            G7
Or that I think this place is bad.
C                           F     Dm
We got a land, this land is free, and no one loves it 
          G7
more than me.

CHORUS:
Dm                               Dm7                 G7
But a man's got a right to talk about, what's on his mind.
G7                       G                        C
That doesn't necessarily mean he's the revolution kind.

#2.
C                                F     Dm
Destruction's near, we heard him moan..but I got conclusions 
      G7
of my own.
C                             F              Dm
And I got some kids I have to teach..that if somebody makes 
  G7      C                            F     Dm
a speech..and what he says, you don't agree..just let him 
                     C
scream, 'The land is free!'

CHORUS:
Dm                                 Dm7                 G7
Cause a man's got a right to talk about, what's on his mind.
G7                       G                        C
That doesn't necessarily mean he's the revolution kind.

#3.
C                                F     Dm
These words have all been said before, by men who had to go 
   G7
to war.
C                                 F      Dm
By men who cried and kissed their wives..by men who had to 
           G7
give their lives.
C                              F   Dm
By better men, my friend, than me..that's why this land we have 
   G7
is free.

OUTRO:
Dm                                 Dm7                 G7
Cause a man's got a right to talk about, what's on his mind.
G7                       G                        C
That doesn't necessarily mean he's the revolution kind.
    F       C       F       C
Oh, no..oh, no..oh, no..oh, nooooo..(Fade.)
