Set Me Free Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]To the powers that [Am]be,
why can't [G]they set me free
And let [Am]me live my life
free from pain [G]and [Am]misery
They can take away my [G]silver, hell no
[Am]They can take away [G]my [Am]gold
And sometimes they'll try
to [G]take me for a ride
[Am]But your love stays
in [G]my [Am]soul
They'll torment me with tax[G]ation,
no, no
[Am]Every little thing they
want to [G]control
[Am]In spite of all those things,
[G]false leaders and prophets [Am]do
Future love will always be [G]true
Now will you take a little dip from [Am]me
I can do all things,
future [G]love that's in my [Am]soul
He protects me while the billows [G]roll
Now [Am]now, man can take my life
cause [G]man likes to live in [Am]strife
But your love stays in my [G]soul
To the [Am]powers that be,
why can't [G]you set me free?
Let [Am]me live my life
free from [G]pain and misery
To the [Am]power[G]s that b[Am]e,
[G]why [Am]can't you set [G]me free?
And let [Am]me live my life
free from all this hy[G]pocrisy
To the [Am]powers that be,
why can't [G]you set me free?
And let [Am]me live my life
free from starvation an[G]d poverty
Now, now, [Am]now[G][Am][G]
I ain't gonna [Am]change my mind,
no, no, [G]no, [Am]no[G][Am]
They can take away my [G]silver
[Am]You know they can
take away all [G]my gold
And [Am]sometimes they try
to [G]tag me for a ride
[Am]But your love stays
in [G]my [Am]soul
They'll torment me with taxa[G]tion,
now, now, now, [Am]now, [G]now[Am]
Every little thing they want to [G]control
[Am]In spite of all those things
[G]false leaders and prophets [Am]do
Put your love, I'll always be [G]true
Do the powers that [Am]be,
why can't [G]you set me free?
And let [Am]me live my life
free from pain an[G]d misery
Do the [Am]powers that be,
[G]why [Am]can't you [G]set me free?[Am]
Let my people live in [G]harmony
To the powers that [Am]be,
why can't [G]you set me [Am]free?
Free from all this hy[G]pocrisy
To the powers that [Am]be,
why can't [G]you set me [Am]free?
Free from starvation an[G]d poverty
To the powers that [Am]be,
why can't you set you
