[D] [C1] [B]

i was bo[D]rn in a lighthouse
where my mother lay [C1]
and she wont wa[B]ke for no shouting    [D]

i was ra[D]ised by the water
by the crippling waves [C1]
and the gu[B]lls gave me my singing voi[D]ce

when the de[C1]vil came to visit me
he said so[B]n i am your enemy
fear me  [D]
but it ca[C1]me to my surprise
i was dr[B]awn by the fire          [D]

i set off we[D]st in the springtime
before the flowers had[C1] bloomed
and the fro[B]st and ice followed me        [D]

i met a l[D]ot of fine women
with the small of their backs [C1]
sh[B]ining like the crescent moon   [D]

when the fi[C1]nest came to visit me
she said s[B]on i am your enemy
fear[D] me
but it c[C1]ame as no surprise
i was dr[B]awn by the fire     [D]

h[D]ey
i am looking for freedom  [C2]
in the wi[B]ld eyes of the dancing girl[D]s
h[D]ey
i am looking for freedom  [C2]
in the o[B]pen arms of america [D]

i was told to find jesus
in a stained glass church
where the light shines red like blood

but the eyes of his children
were so bitterly burned
that i could not stand to look at them

when he finally came to visit me
he was dressed in the rags of poverty

and it came as no surpass
it came as no surprise

hey
i am looking for freedom
in the wild eyes of the dancing girls
hey
i am looking for freedom
in the open arms of america
