My wish is my command
  F                   C
I demand the things I see
  F                     C
I don’t know where they come from
    F                Am
But they are next to free
  C
I have what I have
        F                 C
Cause I have the right to have it
   F                 C
To hell with all the consequences
  F             Am
I don’t need to see
            C         F        Am
Thank god I live in a free country
      C               F        C
Thank god I live in a free country

I don’t think much of strangers
        F              C
Much of you or of your kind
    F                     C
You best fit in or you're free to find
  F               Am
A better place to be
  C
I say what I say
        F                 C
Cause I have the right to say it
   F                 C
To hell with all the differences
F                 Am
It’s all greek to me        
            C         F        Am
Thank god I live in a free country
      C               F        C

     F
It’s great to live in a wonderland
      Dm
Where no one needs a helping hand
   C
An arms length from a trusted brand

And sheltered from the world
    F
The world’s turned to a scary place
        Dm
For the top end of the human race
   C
Oh plastic god in outer space

Wrap me in your warm embrace
      Dm
We’re winning wars and losing face
    F
But half the fun is in the chase
        C                                    Am
And the bleeding hearts are wasting precious time
             Dm      F
on bold face lies
                   C
on their bold face lies

I don’t care about the noise
        F              C
I don’t care about the numbers
     F             C
This wonderland is mine to run
    F              Am
and I’ll do what I please
  C
I do what I do, cause
  F                 C
I have the right to do it
   F                  C
To strip from post to pillar
         F                Am
from the mountains to the sea
            C         F        Am
Thank god I live in a free country
      C               F        C
Thank god I live in a free country
      Am    C         F        Am
Thank god I live in a free country
      C               F        C
Thank god I live in a free country
