[G]Oh freedom [D]Oh freedom [G]Oh freedom [D]over me
[G] And before I'll be a [Em] slave, [C] I'll be burried in my [Am] grave
[G] And go home to my [D] Lord and be [G] free

[G]No more moanin' [D]No more moanin'[G]No more moanin' [D]over me
[G] And before I'll be a [Em] slave, [C] I'll be burried in my [Am] grave
[G] And go home to my [D] Lord and be [G] free

[G]No more weepin' [D]No more weepin'[G]No more weepin' [D]over me
[G] And before I'll be a [Em] slave, [C] I'll be burried in my [Am] grave
[G] And go home to my [D] Lord and be [G] free

[G]No more shootin' [D]No more shootin'[G]No more shootin' [D]over me
[G] And before I'll be a [Em] slave, [C] I'll be burried in my [Am] grave
[G] And go home to my [D] Lord and be [G] free

[G]There'll be singin' [D]There'll be singin'[G]There'll be singin' [D]over me
[G] And before I'll be a [Em] slave, [C] I'll be burried in my [Am] grave
[G] And go home to my [D] Lord and be [G] free

[G] And before I'll be a [Em] slave, [C] I'll be burried in my [Am] grave
