Well, the first thing I remember is the last thing that I saw
Em D C Em
Morning hit the barrel of a rifle going off
D Em D
Then the daylight wrapped around me, then I heard the sergeant scream
Em D C Em
Then all my reservations fell gently at my feet
CHORUS:
C G
Now my heart is free_
C G
My heart is free_
C G
And all the things that hold a man
D Em
No longer carry me
D Em D
I was sure there was a reason to take that side and fight
Em D C Em
But when I saw the trembling hands that put that shot in flight
D Em D
Well, I saw the hands of Jesus, saw the shores at Normandy
Em D C Em
Saw a hundred thousand weary lost and homesick boys like me
CHORUS:
C G
Now my heart is free_
C G
My heart is free_
C G
And all the things that hold a man
D Em
No longer carry me
INSTRUMENTAL: Em D Em D Em D C Em
D Em D
Now they don't remember my name, or the girl that I made proud
Em D C Em
And whatever drew me from her arms, is nothing to me now
CHORUS:
C G
Now my heart is free_
C G
My heart is free_
C G
And all the things that hold a man
D Em
No longer carry me
CHORUS:
C G
My heart is free_
C G
My heart is free_
C G
And all the things that hold a man
D Em
No longer carry me
