  D                  B                G                 A
A nation stands with heart in hand to sing their anthem proudly.
D                B                    G            A
Voices raised to sing their praise of their hollow country.
D                B        G                A
All this talk of freedom, and this talk of liberty,
D                 B      G              A
From your plastic podium you try and convince me.

C       D    B  A    C        D      B       A
I can't fall anymore for some silver-tounged song.
     C       D B   A     C         D B      A
Your freedom isn't free, so let me say what freedom means to--

D                                G             A
I can't see red, white, and blue waving in the air.
D                B                  G            A
I don't hear the bombs bursting and I don't even care.
    D            B                  G                A
I'm sorry for my lack of faith, I'm not the greatest patriot.
D          B               G               A
If this is all there is to freedom I don't want it.

C       D    B  A    C        D      B       A
I can't fall anymore for some silver-tongued song.
     C       D B   A     C         D B      A
Your freedom isn't free, so let me say what freedom means to--
D            B         G        A       G     A    B
Pushing us a drug that you call freedom and democracy,
D               B      G           A     G   A    B
Promiss us that selfishness is the means for happiness.
D             B         G    A        G     A      B
I burned that bridge so long ago that I can hardly see,
D            B              G   A   G     A  D
Anything but solace in what freedom means to me.

   D              B        G            A       G      A B
It cannot mean to serve ourselves, that doesn't mean a thing.
   D               B        G          A       G         A  B
It doesn't mean to give the license to seek ourselves in anything.
D             B    G  A  G             A     B
That would be slavery to ourselves, it isn't free.
D                 B    G          A   G   A     B  D
Jesus Christ, the only thing that freedom means to me.
