Nina Simone - I wish i knew how it would feel to be free

I ^Awish I knew ^F#mhow it would ^Dfeel to be ^Afree I ^Awish I could ^F#mbreak all the c^Bhains holding ^Eme I ^Awish I could ^F#msay all the ^Dthings that I should s^Aay S^Aay 'em loud, say 'em ^F#mclear For the w^Ehole round world to ^Ahear

I ^Awish I could ^F#mshare all the l^Dove that's in my h^Aeart R^Aemove all the ^F#mbars that ke^Bep us apa^Ert I ^Awish you could ^F#mknow what it m^Deans to be ^Ame Then you'd s^Aee and ag^F#mree that ev^Eery man should be fr^Aee

I ^Awish I could g^F#mive all I'm lo^Dngin' to gi^Ave I w^Aish I could l^F#mive like I'm l^Bongin' to li^Eve I w^Aish I could ^F#mdo all the th^Dings that I can ^Ado Though I'm w^Aay over ^F#mdue I'd be s^Etarting an^Aew

I w^Aish I could ^F#mbe like a bi^Drd in the s^Aky How sw^Aeet it would ^F#mbe if I fo^Bund I could f^Ely I'd s^Aoar to the ^F#msun and look d^Down at the s^Aea ^AAnd I sing 'cause I k^F#mnow how it f^Eeels to be f^Aree
