[Verse]
E                                D A E
You say that I put chains on you
E                                    D A E
But I don't think that's really true
E                                    D A E
But if you want to be free from me
E                    D       A
You gotta lose me in another world
 
 
[Chorus]
E              D         A2       A
Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
E              D             A2       A
There's always somewhere anybody can lead
E              D          A2        A
Send me to the Congo you have to believe
E              D         A2       A
You can do it if you wanna just do what you please
 
 
[Verse]
E                        D A E
Like a soldier ant
E                                D A E
I will wait for the signal to act
E                                     D A E
To take a walk right through the door
E                         D    A
If you don't want me here any more
 
 
[Chorus]
E              D         A2       A
Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
E              D             A2       A
There's always somewhere anybody can lead
E              D          A2        A
Send me to the Congo you have to believe
E              D         A2       A
You can do it if you wanna just do what you please

[Interlude]
G       C           C6  C
Into my heart you came
    C                G           G6   G
And gave a whole new meaning to my life
        C                     C6
Into my world you brought a light
  C           G          G6   G
I thought it never would go out
 
 
[Chorus]
E              D         A2       A
Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
E              D             A2       A
There's always somewhere anybody can lead
E              D          A2        A
Send me to the Congo you have to believe
E              D         A2       A
You can do it if you wanna just do what you please
 
 
[Chorus]
        E              D         A2       A
You can send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
E              D             A2       A
There's always somewhere anybody can lead
        E              D         A2       A
Yes you can send me to the Congo, you have to believe
E              D         A2       A
You can do it if you wanna just do what you please

[Outro]
Bm            G             A              Bm
I would never be the one to say you had no reason
Bm            G           A        Bm
To want me somewhere else far far away
    Bm              G           A                 F#m
But someday you may understand, someday you will see
Bm                     G              A             Bm
That someone who would die for you is all I've ever been
Bm        G                A              Bm
Congo the Congo, if that's how it's got to be
Bm        G                A               Bm
Congo the Congo, if that's what you want from me
Bm            G             A              Bm
I would never be the one to say you had no reason
Bm            G           A        Bm
To want me somewhere else far far away
    Bm              G           A                 F#m
But someday you may understand, someday you will see.........
