Subject: CRD: Been Set Free by Peter Himmelman
Been Set Free
By Peter Himmelman
>From the album "Skin"
transcribed by Tony Perry (tp@tunes.microserve.com)
I capo this on the third fret for an interesting effect and
because peter is a baritone and i'm a tenor.
G arpeggio
G - C - G - C
I been drivin sixteen hours, this rain is like a metronome
G C G C G C m D
and on my radio they're talking bout Jesus. Talkin all about coming home.
Well I don't know a thing about it. I close my ears and live without it
you can hear too much when you're alone.
Like children's voices and lovers moaning or a dry wind blowing through a
river bed
All these memories, well they're all wrapped up Like a ball of yarn inside
my head
Now a semi's moving up behind me. Its headlights they all but blind me.
Am C Em (D)
But it's funny, for the first time I can see.
I have believed in money, but all I got was greed
I have believed in vengeance, but all I did was bleed
I have believed in fame, but fame turned its back on me
If I had only believed in love I could have been set free.
I often wonder does it matter or is this all a worthless joke
are we just atoms conceived in silence awaiting our turn to fly like smoke
I'd do anything to lay beside you, I'd bring you all the things that I
denied you
Am C Em (D)
I'd say the words I seldom spoke
I have believed in money, but all I got was greed
I have believed in vengeance, but all I did was bleed
I have believed in fame, but fame turned its back on me
If I had only believed in love I could have been set free.
(break - chorus)
I have believed in money, but all I got was greed
I have believed in vengeance, but all I did was bleed
I have believed in fame, but fame turned its back on me
If I had only believed in love.
If I had only believed in love.
If I had only believed in love.
I could have been set free
