[Bm]
[A]
[G] This [G] next song is for all those who have been unjustly tried, [B] for all those who are now in prison.
This [G] song is for Nelson Mandela.
It's called Freedom Now.
[Bm] [B]
[D] [A]
[F#m] [A]
Oh, they throwed him in jail and [B] they kept him [D] there, hoping soon [A] he'd die.
That his body [B] and spirit would all waste away soon [D] after that, his mind.
But every day he's born [A] a fool, [D] one who thinks that [A] he can rule.
[D] [E] One who says [A] tomorrow's mine, [D] one [B] who waits one day to [E] find.
Prison doors open and the shackles broken, [D] chaos in the [A] street.
Everybody [G] sing we're [E] free, free, [A] free, free.
[G] [E]
[A] Oh,
[G] [E]
[B] they throwed him in jail and they kept him there, hoping his [A] memory'd die.
And that the people forget how he [C#] once led and fought [D] for justice in their [A]
lives.
[Bm] But every day he's born [A] a man who [D] [E] hates what he can't [A] understand.
[Bm]
He thinks the answer is [A] to kill,
[D] thinks his actions [B] are God's [E] will.
And he thinks [G] he's [E] free, free, [A] free, free.
[G] [E] [A]
[G] [E]
[A] Soon [D]
[B] must come the [A] day, rioters [F#m] have their way.
Just to try to free [F#]
people, live in peace, I [D] say.
Give the man [A] release, set your [F#m] conscience free.
Right the wrongs you [C#] made, even a fool can [F#m] have his day.
[A]
[D] [A]
Let us [G] all be [E]
[A]
[G] [E] [A]
[G] free, [E] free, free, [A] free.
[D] Free [E] our bodies, [A] free our minds, free our hearts.
[F#m]
Freedom for everyone [F#] and freedom now.
[D] Oh, [Bm] [A]
freedom [F#m] now.
Oh, freedom [C#] now.
Oh, freedom now.
Oh, [A]
[F#m] freedom now.
[F#]
[F#m]
[A] [D]
[Bm] Let [A] us all [G] be free,
[E]
[Bm] free,
[A] free.
Free our bodies, free our minds, [G]
free our hearts.
