Elton John - Philadelphia Freedom: chords

   A#
I used to be a rolling stone, you know
If the cause was right
     C7                C#    Cm7    A#  D#/F
I'd leave to find the answer on the road
   A#
I used to be a heart beating for someone
But the times have changed
C7                  C#      Cm7       A#
The less I say the more my work gets done

Chorus:
          D#                    G#/D# D#      A#
'Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom
          D#            G#/D#      D#         A#
From the day that I was born I've waved the flag
 G#7                          G7             Cm7
Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man
G#7            G7               F#         D#
Yeah, gave me peace of mind my daddy never had
 A#                             D#    A#/D
Philadelphia freedom, shine on me, I love you
         Cm7               A#/D       C7/E         F  D7sus4  D7
Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind
Gm              Cm7
Shine a light, shine a light
A#/D                      G#/D#   D#
Shine a light, won't you shine a light
Cm7 A#/D D# Edim F        D A#/D  Cm7   A#
Philadelphia  freedom, I love you, yes I do

If you choose to, you can live your life alone
Some people choose the city (Some people choose the city)
Some others choose the good old family home
(Some others choose the good old family home)
I like livin' easy without family ties ('Livin easy)
Til the whippoorwill of freedom zapped me
Right between the eyes

Chorus:
'Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom
From the day that I was born, I've waved the flag
Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man
Gave me peace of mind my daddy never had

Oh, Philadelphia freedom, shine on me, I love ya
Shine the light through the eyes of the ones left behind
Shine the light, shine the light
Shine the light, won't you shine the light?
Philadelphia freedom, I lo-o-ove ya, yes I do

Oh, Philadelphia freedom, shine on me
I love ya
Shine the light through the eyes of the ones left behind
Shine the light, shine the light
Shine the light, won't you shine the light?
Philadelphia freedom, I lo-o-ove ya
You know I lo-o-ove ya, yeah
You know I lo-o-ove you, yes I do!

(Philadelphia freedom)
I lo-o-ove you, yes I do, Philadelphia freedom
You know that I lo-o-ove you, yes I do!
(Philadelphia freedom)
Oh, don't you know that I lo-o-ove you, yes I do!
(Philadelphia freedom)
Don't you know that I lo-o-ove you, yes I do!
(Philadelphia freedom)
Don't you know that I lo-o-ove you, yes I do!
