    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 

    G     A        Bm 
I'm free, yeah, oh I have been forgiven  
      G              A                 Bm  
God's 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 
We said a prayer and said goodbye, and tears began to fill my eyes 
as I stepped back out into the blinding sun 
and even as I drove away, I found that I could not escape 
the way he spoke of what the grace of God had done 
I thought about how sin had sentenced us to die 
and how God gave His only Son so you and I could say 

    G     A        Bm 
I'm free, yeah, oh I have been forgiven  
      G              A                 Bm  
God's 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 
            D 
Because I'm free 
 
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

We're free, yeah, oh we have been forgiven  
      G                A               Bm  
God's grace has broken every chain and given us these wings 
          G     A             Bm        
And we're free, yeah, and the freedom we've been given  
   G                                 A 
Is something that not even death can take away from you and me 
              G     A             Bm        
because we're free, yeah, and the freedom we've been given  
   G                                 A 
Is something that not even death can take away from you and me 
              D 
Because we're free
