Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Percussions]
[A]I won't let you dow[G]n
I will not give you [D]up
Gotta have some faith in the [Em]sound
[A]It's the one good thing that I'v[A]e got
I won't let you [G]down
So please don't give me [D]up
'Cause I would really, [Em]really
[A]love to stick around, oh [A]yeah[G]
[D][Em][A]

[Verse 1]
[E]Heaven knows I was just a you[D]ng boy
Didn't know what I wanted to [D]be
[A](Didn't know what I wanted to [D]be)[A]
I was [E]ev ery little hungry schoolgirl's
[D]pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for [D]me
(I [A]said I guess it was enough for [D]me)[A]
To [E]win the race, a prettier face
[D]Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your [D]rock and roll [A]TV
(rock and roll T[D]V)[A]
But to[E]day the way I play the game
is not the [D]same, no way
I'm gonna get my[D]self [A]happy[D][A]

[Bridge 1]
[Am]I think there's something
you should [E]know
I think it's time I told you [C]so
There's something deep inside of [F#dim]me
There's someone else I've got to [Am]be
Take back your picture in a [E]frame
Take back your singing in the rain
[C]I just hope you understand
[Bm]Sometimes the clothes do not make the man

[Pre-chorus 1]
[A]All we have to [G]do now
Is [D]take these lies
And [Em]make [A]them true somehow
[A]All we have to [G]see
Is that I [D]don't belong to you
And you [Em]don't [A]belong to me, yeah, yeah

[Chorus 1]
[A]Freedom (I won't let you down)
[G]Freedom (I won't give you up)
[D]Freedom (I would be...)
You've gotta [Em]give for [A]what you take

[Verse 2]
[E]Heaven knows we sure had some fun[D], boy
What a kick, just a buddy and [D]me
[A](What a kick just a buddy and [D]me)[A]
We had [E]ev ery big-shot
good time band on the [D]run, boy
We were living in a fanta[D]sy
[A](We were living in a fanta[D]sy)[A]
We [E]won the race, got out of the place
I [D]went back home, got a brand new face
For the [D]boys on [A]MT V
(boys on MT[D]V)[A]
But to[E]day the way I play the game
has got to [D]change, oh yeah (oh yeah)
Now I'm gonna get my[D]self hap[A]py
[D][A]

[Bridge 2]
[Am]I think there's something
you should [E]know
I think it's time I stopped the [C]show
There's something deep inside of [F#dim]me
There's someone I forgot to [Am]be
Take back your picture in a [E]frame
Don't think that I'll be back again
[C]I just hope you understand
[Bm]Sometimes the clothes do not make the man

[Pre-chorus 2]
[A]All we have to [G]do now
Is [D]take these lies
And [Em]make [A]them true somehow
[A]All we have to [G]see
Is that I [D]don't belong to you
And you [Em]don't [A]belong to me, yeah, yeah

[Chorus 2]
[A]Freedom (I won't let you down)
[G]Freedom (I won't give you up)
[D]Freedom (I would be...)
You've gotta [Em]give for [A]what you take
[A]Freedom (I won't let you down)
[G]Freedom (I won't give you up)
[D]Freedom (I would be...)
You've gotta [Em]give for [A]what you take

[Interlude 1]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]

[Bridge 3]
Well it [Am]looks like the road to Heaven
But it [E]feels like the road to Hell
When I [C]knew which side
my bread was buttered
[F#dim]I took the knife as well
[Am]Posing for another picture
[E]Everybody's got to sell
But when you [C]shake your ass, they notice fast
And [G]some mistakes were built to last
[Am](That's what you get) That's what you get
[E](That's what...)
And after all this time
[C](I just hope you understand
[G]Sometimes the clothes do not make the man)

[Chorus 3]
[A]Freedom (oh) [G]Freedom
(my) [D]Freedom
You've gotta [Em]give for [A]what you take
[A]Freedom (hold on to my) [G]Freedom
(my) [D]Freedom
You've gotta [Em]give for [A]what you take

[Outro 1]
[A](for what you [G]take)
[D]Yeah! You got to do[Em]
[A]what you do, what you do,
It [A]may not be what you want from me
[G]It's just the way it's got to be
[D]Lose the faith, now
I've got to [Em]do, I've g[A]ot to do
I've got to do...
