Simple Song of Freedom

Tribute to Bobby Darin, with new lyrics

A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM

G D G
{Come and sing a simple song of freedom
C Am G
{Sing it like you've never sung before
D D7 Em
{Let it fill the air, tell the people everywhere
C D G
{That Love and Faith shall open every door

Some folks simply cannot see the beauty
the rain, the sun the everlasting breeze
their windows are all closed, they're almost comatose
forgetting they're possessing all the keys

{CHORUS}

Hey there, mister miser are you listening ?
cause I've got some important news for you
All your investments, will not add up to a cent
when the New Age dawns on every being true

{CHORUS}

Is anyone still trapped inside the matrix ?
Cause I can sing a thing or two for you
It's all a house of mirrors, designed to create fear
and you can leave by clickin' those ruby shoes

{CHORUS}

I could keep on writing more such verses
as I think Bobby Darin is a saint
he gifted us this song, to help us all be strong
to lift the sick, the homeless and the faint

So help me sing this simple song of freedom
Sing it like you've never sung before
Let it fill the air, tell the people everywhere
That Love and Faith will open every door

Help me sing this simple song of freedom
Sing it like the victory's not yet won
Let it fill the air, tell the people everywhere !!
We the people here shall overcome
We the people here shall overcome


(For Bruce Stephenson and Bobby Darin,
April 30, 2009; Montréal, Québec)
