---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "That's freedom" by John Farnham. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Tim Norton – Australia. Email: t_n46@hotmail.com Tuning: standard EADGBE This is the album version from "Chain Reaction" 1990, although I have also tabbed out live solo performed by Jack Jones (Irwin Thomas) from the 1990 Melbourne "Chain reaction" (on DVD). The background power chords are noted at the bottom of the page. Great song. Good luck and enjoy! Intro: E6* Verse 1a: E6 E6/C#* I don't know what you want from me or what you think love ought to be
E6I want something that's open and strong as E6/C#the country this road's moving on from the Verse 1b E6Mountain to the valley from the E6/C#ocean to the alley from the E6highway to the river one eE6/C#motion to deliver
Pre-chorus: Asus2* Bsus2* Asus2 Bsus2 One heart, one way, one love, to share but not to chain (that's freedom) Chorus: E F#m* Bsus2 Asus2 It's a song of the heart a race in the wind a light in the dark (that's freedom)
EIt's a reason to F#mlive and after the Bsus2rain rekindle the Asus2spark let freedom ring.
Fill: E6 Verse 2:
E6I don't know why it takes so long to reE6/C#member what the world's doing wrong E6Never wanted to shove my plan on anE6/C#other who can't understand
Pre-chorus 2:
Asus2All I want is a fast lane to where the Bsus2road across this plain won't take you Asus2I want something you understand to Bsus2make us stand proud as nothing else can (that's freedom)
Chorus:
EIt's a song of the F#mheart a race in the Bsus2wind a light in the Asus2dark (that's freedom) EIt's a reason to F#mlive and after the Bsus2rain rekindle the Asus2spark (that's freedom) EIt's a measure of F#mtrust when love is aBsus2live it's tender and Asus2tough (that's freedom) EIt's all love is aF#mbout it's opening Bsus2up and letting it Asus2out let freedom ring
