I Shall Be Released Lyrics

E F#m
They say everything can be replaced
G#m A B E
They say every distance is not near
F#m
So I remember every face
G#m A B E B
Of every man who put me here
(Chorus:)
E F#m
I see my light come shinin'
G#m A B E
From the west unto the east
F#m
Any day now, any day now
G#m A B E
I shall be released
They say ev'ry man needs protection
They say that ev'ry man must fall
Yet I swear I see my reflection
Somewhere so high above this wall
(Chorus)
Now yonder standing there in this lonely crowd
A man who swears he's not to blame
All day long I hear him shouting so loud
Just crying out that he was framed
(Chorus)
