If I ever write my Ode to Freedom
                         B
It will be in prose that chimes with me
                     F#m
It would be a simple Ode to Freedom
B                         E
Not pretentious, but with dignity
        Am                 G#7
I would like to think that freedom is
                 C#m
More than just a word
   A         E
In grand and lofty language
        B                  E
Odes to Freedom often go unheard

[Verse 2]
E
If I ever wrote my Ode to Freedom
                     B
Being privileged and spoilt for choice
                           F#m
Then I fear that you would be suspicious
B                         E
Of the cause to which I'd lend my voice
     Am      E        G#7
It's elusive and it's hard to hold
                C#m
It's a fleeting thing
       A         E                    B                  E
That's why there is no Ode to Freedom truly worth remembering
  A        E                         B                         E
I wish someone would write an Ode to Freedom that we all could sing
 
[Outro]
C   E   C   E
              If I ever write my
Ode to Freedom
It will be in prose that chimes with me
It would be a simple
Ode to Freedom
Not pretentious, but with dignity
I would like to think that freedom is
More than just a word
In grand and lofty language
Odes to Freedom often go unheard

If I ever wrote my
Ode to Freedom
Being privileged and spoilt for choice
Then I fear that you would
Be suspicious
Of the cause to which I'd lend my voice
It's elusive and it's hard to hold
It's a fleeting thing

That's why there is no Ode to Freedom truly worth remembering
I wish someone would write an Ode to Freedom that we all could sing
