I Am Free

TONES AND I

Free

I wasn′t born to be an angelI cut my feet along the road
But it reminds me of the days where I was happy
Playin' games with neighbours kids I hardly know

And they say, I was born to be a suspect
I carry all the fault
And it still bothers me the way I wait about it
But I had to leave, you know I had to go

And I knew in time I′d find the end to all the answers
And I knew in time I'd find I'd carried all the pain
But I knew in time I′d find a way to just forgive myself
To forgive myself for leavin′ you that way

But now I'm free, my darlin′
But now I'm free, my darlin′, my darlin'
But now I′m free, my darlin'
Now I'm free (I′m free, my darlin′, I'm free, my darlin′), my darlin', my darlin′

And I'm ashamed of all the things you ever said I′ve done
Oh, I promise you that I'm ashamed about it
But you never took the blame, no, no, no, not even once
Well I carry mine alone and drink about it

And I was reaching for your hand, I would look you in the eye
I was layin' on the floor, I was fightin′ for my life
But you never took the blame while I still carry mine, I

But now I′m free, my darlin'
Now I′m free, my darlin', my darlin′

And since I went away, yeah, I know you think about us
But you haven't got the head and heart to show it
Oh, but it wasn′t only you, yeah, I was angry too
So I'll take my bow and I'll accept my moment

And I knew in time I′d find the end to all the answers
And I knew in time I′d find I'd carried all the pain
But I knew in time I′d find a way to just forgive myself
To forgive myself for leavin' you that way

I′m free, my darlin', I′m free, my darlin'
I'm free, my darlin′, I′m free
I'm free, my darlin′, I'm free, my darlin′ (darlin', darlin′, darlin')
I'm free, my darlin′, I′m free

I'm free, my darlin′, I'm free, my darlin′
I'm free, my darlin′, I'm free
I'm free, my darlin′, I′m free, my darlin'
I′m free, my darlin', I′m free (let me be free)
