   A (x02220@1)       GLooking (320003@1)for the right kind,
       A (x02220@1)      G (320003@1)(riff)  D5add9
Live free or die.
  D (xx0232@1)                    GI (320003@1)want to see your smile through a pay phone,
 D (xx0232@1)               GSeason (320003@1)has changed;
(riff)
I want to see you in it,
D (xx0232@1)            G (320003@1)                    D (xx0232@1)      GLights (320003@1)that shine are caustic without you.

Bm(4x)           A (x02220@1)       GWhen (320003@1)we're all passed over,
Bm(4x)      A (x02220@1)       G (320003@1)           DThe (xx0232@1)rhythm of the river will remain.
    G (320003@1)     A (x02220@1)    DIt (xx0232@1)will, it will remain.

 D (xx0232@1)             GNicotine (320003@1)and waiting,
D (xx0232@1)          GJust (320003@1)wanted to keep it alive
riff
You turn and 'fore you know it,
D (xx0232@1)           G (320003@1)               D (xx0232@1)     GWe're (320003@1)just threading this needle for life.

A (x02220@1)                 GA (320003@1)brighter way is what you've proved,
A (x02220@1)                        G (320003@1)       (riff)
Anesthetize is what you do.

D (xx0232@1)                GSomeday (320003@1)we'll be together

The Delta mud will be there,
D (xx0232@1)          G (320003@1)               D (xx0232@1)               GWe're (320003@1)just livin' this way 'cause we've known no other.

Bm(4x)          A (x02220@1)       GWhen (320003@1)we're all passed over,
Bm(4x)          A (x02220@1)       G (320003@1)   DThe (xx0232@1)rhythm of the river will remain.
    G (320003@1)     A (x02220@1)     DIt (xx0232@1)will, it will remain.

A (x02220@1)                 GLooking (320003@1)for the right kind,
A (x02220@1)            GLive (320003@1)free or die.
