I Shall Be Released

Bob Dylan


C B A# A add sus4 A
              A                                                 Bm
                They say everything can be replaced
           C#m               Bm                   A add sus4   A
                But, every distance is not near
                So, I remember every face
                Of every man who put me here
                          I see my light come shinin'
                          From the west down to the east
                          Anyday now, anyday now
                          I shall be released
                                 *Solo*   (verse)

                They say every man must need protection
                They say every man must fall
                Yet, I swear I see my reflection
                Someplace so high above the wall
                          I see my light come shinin'
                          From the west  down to the east
                          Anyday now, anyday now
                          I shall be released
                                 *Solo*   (verse)

                Down here next to me in this lonely crowd
                There's a man who swears he's not to blame
                All day long I hear him cry so loud
                Calling out that he's been framed
                          I see my light come shinin'
                          From the west down to the east
                          Anyday now, anyday now
                          I shall be released
                                 Anyday now, anyday now
                                 I shall be released...
