I Shall Be Released

Intro: C
 
            Dm         Em 
Any day now, any way now  
                     C   F   C   F   C 
I shall be released  


                             Dm       Em 
They say everything can be replaced   
          F               C 
Yet every distance is not near  
                        Dm     Em 
Though I remember every face   
         F              C      Cadd9 C 
Of every man who put me here 


                    Dm        Em 
I see my light come shining  
         F                C 
From the west down to the east   
            Dm             Em 
Any day now, any way now  
  F          C 
I shall be released  

                            Dm       Em 
They say every man needs protection  
              F              C 
They say that every man must fall  
                        Dm        Em 
Yet, I swear I see my reflection  
             F               C      Cadd9 C 
Somewhere so high above this wall  



                    Dm        Em 
I see my light come shining  
         F                C 
From the west down to the east   
            Dm             Em 
Any day now, any way now  
  F          C 
I shall be released  


Instrumental: C   Dm   Em  F  C  (2x) 


                            Dm             Em 
Standing next to me in this lonely crowd   
          F                  C 
A man who swears he's not to blame   
                        Dm                 Em 
All day long I hear him shouting so loud   
       F               C        Cadd9 C 
Crying out that he was framed 

 
                    Dm        Em 
I see my light come shining  
         F                C 
From the west down to the east   
            Dm             Em 
Any day now, any way now  
  F          C 
I shall be released  
            Dm             Em 
Any day now, any way now  
N.C. 
I shall be released
