Bm G The sun was beating down inside the walls of stone and razor wire D A As we made our way across the prision yard Bm G I felt my heart begin to race as we drew nearer to the place D A Where they say that death is waiting in the dark Em Bm The slamming doors of iron echoed through the halls G A Where despair holds life within its creul claws Bm G But then I met a man whse face seemed so strangely out of place D A A blinding light of hope was shining in his eyes Bm G And with repentance in his voice he told me of his tragic choice D A That led him to this place where he must pay the price Em Bm But then his voice grew strong as he began to tell G A About the one he said had rescued him from Hell, He said CHORUS G A Bm I'm free, yeah, oh I have been forgiven G A Bm Gods love has taken off my chains and given me these wings G A Bm And I'm free, yeah, and the freedom I've been given G A Is something that not even death can take away fom me Bm G Because I'm free D A Jesus set me free Verse 2 is the same as the first verse. *Chorus* F#sus F# F#sus F# If the Son has set you free, oh if the Son has set you free D Oh, you are free indeed, oh you are really free F#sus F# F#sus F# Oh, If the Son has set you free, oh, if the Son has set you free, G A You are free, really, really free *Chorus 2x* Play D and G untill the end. The part at the end where he sings, "If the Son has set you free, you are free indeed," play D and G also.
