G F
I won't let you down
C
I will not give you up
(Gotta have some faith in the sound)
F G F G
It's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up
Because I would really, really love to stick around
Oh yeah
G F C F G F G
C Bb
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
C F C(F) C
Didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
To win the race? A prettier face!
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll TV
But today the way I play the game is not the same
No way
Think I'm gonna get me some happy
Cm G
I think there's something you should know
Bb
I think it's time I told you so
F
There's something deep inside of me
Cm
There's someone else I've got to be
G
Take back your picture in a frame
Bb
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
F (G) C
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/michael_george/freedom_crd.html ]
C Bb
All we have to do now
F C
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
Bb
All we have to see
F
Is that I don't belong to you
Bb C Bb C
And you don't belong to me
C Bb F
Freedom Freedom Freedom
Bb C Bb C
You've gotta give for what you take
C Bb F
Freedom Freedom Freedom
Bb C Bb C
You've gotta give for what you take
G F
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
C F C F
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big shot good-time band on the run boy
We were living in a fantasy
We won the race
Got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
For the boys on MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change
Oh yeah
Now I'm gonna get myself happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don't think that I'll be back again
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
Cm
Well it looks like the road to heaven
G
But it feels like the road to hell
Bb
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
F
I took the knife as well
Cm
Posing for another picture
G
Everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were built to last
Cm
That's what you get, that's what you get
G
I say that's what you get, that's what you get
Bb F
That's what you get for changing your mind
Cm
That's what you get
G
That's what you get
(And after all this time)
Bb
I just hope you understand
F
Sometimes the clothes
(G) C
Do not make the man
Chords
C 335553
Cm 335543
Bb 113331
F 133211

P.S. I hope I got it right. Song is pretty difficult so you'll have to
listen to the record many times. Have fun!
Dmitri
