This is one of Neil Young's best songs
Intro: Em D C
Em D C
Colors on the street
Em D C
Red white and blue
Em D C
People shufflin' their feet
Em D C
People sleepin' in their shoes
Em D C
But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead
Em D C
There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead
Em D C
Don't feel like Satan but I am to them
Em D C
so I try to forget it anyway I can
CHORUS:
G D C Em
Keep on rockin' in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rockin' in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rockin' in the free world
G D C Em
Keep on rockin' in the free world
I see a girl in the night
With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light
Near a garbage can
Now she puts the kid away and she's gone to get a hit
She hates her life and what she's done to it
That's one more kid that will never go to school
Never get to fall in love never get to be cool
(Chorus)
We got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
We got a kinder gentler machine gun hand
We got department stores and toilet paper
Got styrophone boxes for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people says keep hope alive
Got fuel to burn got roads to drive
(Chorus)

Mac plays this song in the key of Bm
-lumpyokc | 10/23/2004 | I saw that someone had requested this song
so I figured I'd help out by posting it, but
I posted the way Neil Young plays it because
I never payed attention to how Mike plays it.
Anywho, for anyone who wants to play in Bm,
the chords are Bm(Em), A(D), G(C), D(G).
-ccgcrrjp | 10/23/2004 | It's not the key of Bm genius. It's D major. Learn your scales and keys. I swear, no one these days knows that kinda stuff anymore.
-pickerfromWACO | 2/25/2005 | he came to my hometown and played an all acoustic show and these are the chords he used so i guess it just varies show to show.
