I Shall Be Released

C                         Dm
They say everything can be replaced,
 Em         Dm          C
That every distance is not near,
                 Dm
So I remember every face,
 Em      Dm             C
Of every man who's put me here.
            C               Dm
     I see my light come shining,
       Em    Dm     G     C
     From the west unto the east.
                 Dm
     Any day now, any way now,
      Em     Dm     C
     I shall be released.
   C                        Dm
They say every man needs protection,
 Em        Dm          C
That every man must rise and fall.
                      Dm
Yet I swear I see my reflection,
 Em      Dm          C
Somewhere so high above this wall.

**Chorus

 C                         Dm
Yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd,
 Em       Dm          C
A man who swears he's not to blame.
                           Dm
All day long I hear him shouting so loud,
 Em         Dm           C
He's crying out that he was framed.
            C               Dm
     I see my light come shining,
       Em    Dm     G     C
     From the west unto the east.
                 Dm
     Any day now, any way now,
      Em     Dm     C
     I shall be released.
                    Dm
     Any day now, any way now,
      Em     Dm     C
     I shall be released
