CWell (x32010@1)I heard the bells of freedom once
      F (133211@1)               CAs (x32010@1)I was coming down the road
F (133211@1)           CComing (x32010@1)down the road
C (x32010@1)                        F (133211@1)        CAnd (x32010@1)I followed that echo wherever it would go
         F (133211@1)          CAs (x32010@1)I was coming down the road
             G (320003@1)            F (133211@1)          CBut (x32010@1)there always seemed to be trouble in my path
              G (320003@1)           F (133211@1)          CI (x32010@1)found my hands tied behind my back
               F (133211@1)   CAs (x32010@1)I was coming down the road
               F (133211@1)     CComing (x32010@1)down the road

Well I heard the truth call my name
As I was coming down the road
Coming down the road
And I followed that voice to the valley below
As I was coming down the road
And it took me down a path where I was lost all the time
I found some truth but it could never be mine
As I was coming down the road
Coming down the road

And I saw myself for a second as I really am
As I was coming down the road
And I had to look away in disbelief I suppose
As I was coming down the road
I caught a glimpse of myself as others see me
And I wasnt the fella that I thought I'd be
As I was coming down the road
Coming down the road

I saw you out my window
As you was walking alone
Coming down the road
And I raised my hand as if to say hello
As I was coming down the road
But you didn't wave back
You just walked on by
Alone by yourself
Till the day you die
And I guess the truth and freedom before us all lies
Somewhere down the road
Somewhere down the road
