Steve Earle – Lonely Are The Free (Guitar)

C
Lonely are the free

                                         Am
There ain't that many of them they don't walk like you and me

          C
They just tumble in the breeze

                           Am
Lighter than a feather altogether separately

       C
That's how it's s'posed to be no matter where they wander

     Am
From post to in between from here to over yonder

           C
There's no place for them to lean

Am
Lonely are the free

    C
The silent are the strong

                                   Am
Not so much as a whisper tells you anything is wrong

C
You've known all along

                                  Am
But you can't help but listen and now the moment's gone

F
Keeps you hangin' on until the silence signalin'

    Am
The breakin' of the dawn is shattered by the sirens singin'

C
Sacrificial songs

Am
Silent are the strong

       F
That's all there is to see a violent shadow passin'

          Am
Cross the sun so fleetingly that if you have to ask

            C
You miss it anyway you see

Am
Lonely are the free
