C Em F
Where were you
C F
When the plane went down
C Am
When the president was born
G F Am
When they founded this town
C
She was standing out back
Dm F
She could hardly hear the band
CHORUS:
C Bb F
My bird of freedom
C
With a gun in her hand
Bb F
My bird of freedom
C Bb F C
With a gun in her hand
Em F
Have you seen
C F
The parade in her eye
C Am
Hungry and hot
G F Am
Like the fourth of July
C
What is it about her
Dm F
That you don't understand
CHORUS:
C Bb F
My bird of freedom
C
With a gun in her hand
Bb F
My bird of freedom
C Bb F C Bb F G
With a gun in her hand
BRIDGE:
F C G
Don't look back now boys
F C Em
As she waves and she gets small
F Em
With those sweet wings that beat
F Em
Those sweet wings at night
F C
How those sweet wings fly
Bb F C Bb F
It ain't no choice at all
C Em F
Are you cool and dry
C F
Are you keeping warm
C Am
Shadow boxing
G F Am
This thunder-storm
C
Write me and tell me
Dm F
Where we fit in what is planned
CHORUS:
C Bb F
Me and my bird of freedom
C
With a gun in her hand
Bb F
My bird of freedom
C Bb F
With a gun in her hand___
