With dream comfort memory to spare,
and in my mind I still need a place to go,
All my changes were there,

Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.

: Keep on rockin' in the free world

Intro: Emi D C 

1. Emi 
Colors on the street
D C 
 

red white and blue 
people shufflin' their feet 
people sleepin in their shoes 
there's a warning sign of the road ahead 
there's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better of dead 
don't feel like satan but I am to them 
so I try to forget it anyway I can 

R: [: G 
Keep on 
D 
rockin in the free 
C 
world :] 4× 


2. I saw a girl in the night 
with a baby in her hands 
under an old street light 
near a garbare can 
now she puts the kid away 
and she's gonna get a hit 
she hates her life 
and what she's done to it 
there is a one more kid 
that will never go to school 
never get to fall in love 
never get to be cool 

R: Keep on rockin in the free world…

3. We've got the thousands points of light 
for the homeless man 
we've got a kinder gentler machine gun hand 
we've got department stores and the toilet paper 
got the styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer 
got the man of the people says keep hope alive
got fuel to burn and roads to drive 

R: Keep on rockin in the free world…
