______________________________________________________________________

(GUITARS & HARP INTRO)

outside my country home, the world's done been bye

you're all in there alone even though your side by side

say the word, the word is freedom

show the way, the way is love

another day, that life your leadin'

be a bird, that's gone astray

(yeah-e-yeh, yeah-e-yeah)

 

outside my country home, you're runnin' 'til you die

the sadness you have known often makes me want to cry

say the word, the word is freedom

show the way, the way is love

another day, that life your leadin'

be a bird that's gone astray

(yeah-e-yeh, yeah-e-yeah)

 

lookin' down the well a voice says come on in

go on and kill yourself, there's joy in the end

then comes a song and takes me for a whirl

music is my only faithful girl

ah...

(HARP SOLO)

(ahh, ahh, ahh)

 

outside my country home, the world's done been by

you're all in there alone even though your side by side

say the word, the word is freedom

show the way, the way is love

another day, that life your leadin'

be a bird that's gone astray

yeah-e-yeh, yeah-e-yeah

(FIDDLE & HARP DITTYS)

ah

aha

ah
