_ _ _ [G] have tried _ _ _ _ in _ _ [D] my _ _ way _ _ _ _ _ to [C] be free. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] Like a _ man _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] on a hook, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] like a knife _ _ _ _ _ _ from [C] an old, _ old-fashioned book,
_ _ _ [G]
I have saved _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] every _ freedom, I _
_ _ _ _ _ [C]
have saved every freedom _ _ _ _ _ [Am]
[G] for _ thee. _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] And if I, _ _ _ _ _ _ and if I have ever [G] been _ untrue, _ _

[Ab] _ [A] _
_ _ _ Said, and I heard her say,
_ _ [D]
Why, _ why not ask, why not ask [G] for no more? _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
