[Riff 1]
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
    D6/A        A         A2/F#     A
The mountain is high, the valley is low
    A24       A         A2/F#    A
And you're confused, on which to go
   D6/A   A        A2/F#      A
So I come here, to give you a hand
    D6/A     A         A2/F#    A
And lead you into, the promised land...so
 
 
[Chorus]
 
(hit each chord 2 times, except for D chord)
 
F#   G             A          A5
Come on and take a free ride (free ride)
F#   G           D
Come on continue by my side
F#   G             D          RIFF2
Come on and take a free ride
 
 
[Riff 1]
 
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
 
All over the country, I'm seein' it the same
Nobody's winning, at this type of game
We gotta do better, it's time to begin
You know all the answers, must come from within..so
 
 
[Chorus]
 
(hit each chord 2 times, except for D chord)
 
F#   G             A          A5
Come on and take a free ride (free ride)
F#   G           D
Come on continue by my side
F#   G             D          RIFF2
Come on and take a free ride
 
 
[Solo]
 
(stop bridge)
[Riff 3]

Come on and take a free ride yea, yea, yea, yea......
