C
Took a ride on a boat
F C
From a harbour by the bay
C
I took a walk on on a rock
G C
Yes it still stands today
C
I thought of all the men
F C
who couldn't conform to society
C
and I saw myself
G C
standing on the rock
C
I took a look in a cell
F C
thats when the men began to roar
C
four grey walls of nothing
G C
and nowhere else to go
C
and I thought of all the men
F C
who would never sell their souls
C
and I saw myself
G C
standing on the rock
F C
Land of the glory
G C
land of the free
F C
freedom means nothing
D G
and nothing means you're free
C
I stepped back on the boat
F C
I could sense a storm was due
C
I had to look behind to see
G C
if what I felt was true
C
and I thought of all the men
F C
couldn't take a telling what to do
C
and I saw myself
G C
standing on the rock
F C
Land of the glory
G C
land of the free
F C
freedom means nothing
D G
and nothing means you're free
C
I thought of all the men
F C
who couldn't conform to society
C
and I saw myself
G C
standing on the rock
