If you want to play this in standard tuning shift it down one step
so the chords are D#m, C#, B, F# and play them as barre chords.
[Intro]
Em D C G D x3
[Verse 1]
Em D
There's a calmness to the air outside
C G D
Watch the sun color the sight of a morning sky
Em D
But all I see are clouds of darkest gray
C G D
A full eclipse to veil the start of another day
Em D C G D
[Verse 2]
Em D
Hear the laughter as the children smile
C G D
Hold a newborn close and dream for a little while
Em D
But all I hear is Death knock at my door
C G D
And think of painful journeys our young must endure
[Chorus]
Em D
Set me free tonight
C G D
Set me free tonight
Em D
Set me free tonight
C G D
Set me free tonight

[Verse 3]
Em D
Touch the water with your own two hands
C G D
Let the freedom bell bring calm to a troubled land
Em D
But all I feel are my two feet in chains
C G D
I know the system, but I can't figure out the game
[Chorus]
Em D
Set me free tonight
C G D
Set me free tonight
Em D
Set me free tonight
C G D
Set me free tonight
