I hear the children play
                        Em
with the guards of the jail

I'm thinking of a new name

That I could give myself

One day I'll be myself
 A                  D
One day I'll be my own

It's been forty long years
                      Em
In the desert I have been
                           D
I've even hit the devil's nose
D
In the desert I've grown

 D
Have a good day brother
              G
Me and your sister will rise up
                           A
Like an elephant from the mud
           D
In your carefree sleep
         D                   Bm
We will break free, we will break free
 D
Have a good day brother

And the city will be reborn
                          Em
And the streets will be washed
 D                            Em
May the streets be clean and washed
G                              D
May the streets be clean and washed
 D
And we will wave our hand
                                Em
And everybody will forgive the past
 D                              Em
And everybody will forgive the past
 D
And as the woman said
                           Em
That day when I was crying out
Em                            Bm
God puts his diamonds in the sand
                                D
But then he always takes them back
 
[Chorus]

We will break free, we will break free

We will break free, we will break free
