E
I don’t wanna go to prison, I don’t wanna be in jail

I don’t want no badge and buckle, bringin’ me my meal and mail 
         A
I don’t want to count the hours when it ain’t worth counted for
         E       
I don’t like to walk on the carpet but I hate the concrete floor
         A                                      E
So I’m tryin’ to behave myself and try to act right 
                                                            A
And I’m neighborly with my neighbor and I say my prayer at night 
          D                                                 A
But the thing that really matter is that you would care for me 
                                               E        A
And I just want you to know that if you do I shall be free
                                    D     
I shall be free I shall be free I shall be free I shall be free 
        A                  E        A
If you ever do want me I shall be free 
         E
I don’t want to be a traveler I don’t want a suit and tie
                                                     A
I don’t want to eat my supper seven miles up in the sky
     
I don’t want to be a chairman I don’t want a cellular phone
          E                                                  A
I don’t want no golden Switzerland and you are my precious stone
                                                          E
I’ll be satin’ on getting ready at this light is not for you
                                                     A
Won’t no kind of obligation not one thing I have to do 
         D                                                    A
I would sleep out in the yard so you would know where I will be   
                                                 E        A
And if you peak out you’re window and see me I shall be free 
                                    D        
I shall be free I shall be free I shall be free I shall be free 
         A                 E       A
If you ever do want me I shall be free

   E
I would give up my guitar gave away my fancy clothes
                                                        A
I would cancel my engagements I would cut out all the shows
      
I tear up my driver license I would burn my road map
         E                                             A
I would sit down by the phone with your picture on my lap
                                                         E
I would sit down by the mailbox waitin’ for the mornin’ mail
                                                 A
Like a anxious puppy who just sits and wags his tail 
                                                   E
You would never catch me sleepin’ honey that I guaranteed
        A                  E        A
If you ever do want me I shall be free 
                                   D
I shall be free I shall be free I shall be free I shall be free 
        A                  E        A
If you ever do want me I shall be free 
     E
And just give half a chance I would give the world to you
                                             A
I would be and do most anything you want me to
    
I will love you and protect you and provide bountifully
      E                                          
I’ll gave you tomorrow if you gave yourself to me 
      A                      E        A
And when ever that maybe I shall be free
                                    D
I shall be free I shall be free I shall be free I shall be free 
         A                 E        A
If you ever do want me I shall be free
