[G] [C] And I was busted flat and battered and rude I was just waiting for a train
A feeling was nearly faded, I had some [G] of the gene
And I took my bedclothes and daydreamed it settled down
And just before it rained Some old man drove it all the way to New [Cm] Orleans
[Am] I just thought of my old man I'd blow that [C] low while the woman kept singing
[F] the blues And that old man said, oh I'm just a happy
child [C] I think I'll make a happy [G] man
Sing another song and drive the [C] news
You [F] know freedom is just another [C] word I got nothing to lose
[G] I'm nothing it ain't a word for heaven but [Cm] it's free
[F] It ain't good for me to [C] call when my woman sings
Blues, [G] it ain't gonna be good enough for Jeremy
Heard a little lady in the barn that called my [C] baby
[D] One fool my eyes out can't forget, he was a guy that lived on the sun
I missed him every six of [A] my [F#m] bones
He was standing right beside Jeremy, did everything I done
My God, she used to help me [D] from the moon
Somewhere in the banana, I watched that little old man
[G] Hey God, [Em]
[D] I [A] could hold that woman's body
[Dm] [G] Freedom is just another [Bm] word I got nothing to lose
[A] I'm nothing it ain't a word for heaven [D] but it's free
