I SHALL BE RELEASED - BOB DYLAN


A Bm
they say everything can be replaced
C#m Bm A E7
yet every distance is not near
A Bm
so I remember every face
C#m Bm A E7
of every man who put me here
 
A Bm
I see my light come shining
C#m Bm A
from the west unto the east
A
any day now
Bm
any day now
C#m Bm A
I shall be released
 
they say every man needs protection
they say every man must fall
yet I swear I see my reflection
somewhere so high above this wall
 
there stands a man in this lonely crowd
a man who swears he's not to blame
all day long I hear him cry so loud
calling out that he's been framed
