Verso 1: 
F                          C 
I've been tearing down the walls 
                           Am 
I've been kicking down the doors 
                          G 
I've been burning all the boxes 
F                          C 
'Cause I'm a slave to only truth 
                 Am 
I'm as wild as a wolf 
                           G 
You can't keep me from the mountains 


Pré-Refrão 
C/E   F              C 
I'm replacing all my demons 
        Am                G      C/E 
For the sweetest songs of freedom 
     F             C                  Am  G 
Last night I had a dream that I could fly 

 
     C/E   F 
Now, baby, I

I'm as free as a bird

I'm as free as a bird

Baby, I 
C                      Am 
I don't know if you've heard 
                       G 
I don't know if you've heard 
C/E   F                  C 
But I taught my heart to sing 
      Am                 G 
And I found me a pair of wings 
     C/E   F 
Now, baby, I 
C                Am 
I'm as free as a bird 
                 G 
I'm as free as a bird 

Verso 2: 
F                            C 
I've been flying through the trees 
                         Am 
I've been dancing on the breeze 
                         G 
I kiss the sun now every morning 
F                         C 
I've been shaking off the chains 
                        Am 
I've been giving up the games 
                       G 
I've been answering my calling 

Pré-Refrão
C/E    F           C 
And as soon as I surrendered 
    Am             G    C/E 
The light began to enter 
     F             C                  Am  G 
Last night I had a dream that I could fly 

 
     C/E   F 
Now, baby, I 
C                Am 
I'm as free as a bird

I'm as free as a bird 
C/E   F 
Baby, I 
C                      Am 
I don't know if you've heard

I don't know if you've heard 
C/E   F                  C 
But I taught my heart to sing 
      Am                 G

Now, baby, I

C                      Am 
I don't know if you've heard
