Lord have mercy

i need somewhere quiet
a place i can hide in no war just peace

over the stars tonight we spark to see the light (we smoke to see jah light)
we dropping anchor were going over

Lord have mercy

i need somewhere quiet
a place i confide in no war just peace

Franco alters the chords a little with the D and C chord. he plays around with the
2nd, 3rd and open e string while he does the D chord; and he plays around with the 1st, 3rd
and open B string while he does the C chord.
Intro:
D C 2x

Verse 1:
All my life always a scene about frustrations
doesn’t seem right that’s what I’d say
where would i go now now I’m left with nothing, nothing but apathy
then it just hit me I don’t wanna feel no more

Chorus:
wish I was free
wish it was me
yeah wish I was

Verse 2:
lonely is me, hard to understand
well I’m breaking, still shaking. Help me Almighty One
standing from a distance, your saddened face of death I see
if you look around, many will see

Chorus:
wish I was free
wish it was me
yeah wish I was

Bridge:

play these next 4 chords softer

Verse 3:
help has passed my way, it’s far from me. now my world spins
‘round, ‘round, ‘round, ‘round. Around

Chorus:
wish I was free
wish it was me
yeah wish I was

Verse 4:
I need wings on my back to lift me up
to heaven where I wish I could stay
where the river flows, silver snow. Wherever its taking me I don’t know
wish I was free
wish it was me
take me..… take me.… take me..….

end it with a single strum of D

END
