I Shall Be Released

I Shall Be Released-Bob Dylan

A Bm

They say ev'ry man needs protection,

C#m E9 A D/A A

They say ev'ry man must fall.

A Bm

Yet I swear I see my reflection

Cm E9 A D/A A

Some place so high above this wall.

A Bm

I see my light come shining

C#m E9 A

From the west unto the east.

A Bm

Any day now, any day now,

C#m E9sus4 A

I shall be released.

A Bm

They say ev'rything can be replaced,

C#m E9 A D/A A

Yet ev'ry distance is not near.

A Bm

So I remember ev'ry face

Cm E9 A D/A A

Of ev'ry man who put me here.

A Bm

I see my light come shining

C#m E9 A

From the west unto the east.

A Bm

Any day now, any day now,

C#m E9sus4 A

I shall be released.

A Bm

Standing next to me in this lonely crowd,

C#m E9 A D/A A

Is a man who swears he's not to blame.

A Bm

All day long I hear him shout so loud,

Cm E A D/A A

Crying out that he was framed.

A Bm

I see my light come shining

C#m E9 A

From the west unto the east.

A Bm

Any day now, any day now,

C#m E9 A D/A A

I shall be released.
