E
It ain't fair, John Sinclair
In the stir for breathing air
A
Won't you care for John Sinclair?
In the stir for breathing air
E
Let him be, set him free
Let him be like you and me

Chorus:
      B
They gave him ten for two
A
What else can Judge Columba do?
    G
We got to, got to, got to,
got to, got to, got to, got to, got to
Got to, got to, got to,
                                         E
got to, got to, got to, got to set him free

If he had been a soldier man
Shooting gooks in Vietnam
If he was the CIA
Selling dope and making hay
He'd be free
They'd let him be
Breathing air like you and me
Right on

Chorus

Free

Chorus

Was he jailed for what he'd done
Representing everyone
Free John now if we can
From the clutches of the man
Let him be
Lift the lid
Bring him to his wife and kids
Alright

Chorus
