        Dm          Am G
If you need somebody,
call my name
If you want someone,
you can do the same

If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me

Chorus:
        Bm
If you love somebody
        G
If you love someone
       Bm
If you love somebody
        G     Am
If you love someone
          Dm Am G
set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)

If it's a mirror you want
Just look into my eyes
Or a whipping boy, someone to despise
Or a prisoner in the dark
Tied up in chains you just can't see
Or a beast in a gilded cage
That's all some people ever want to be

Chorus

F                         C
You can't control an independent heart
Gm              F              C
Can't tear the one you love apart
  Gm                       F
Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live
          C
We can't live here and be happy with less
Gm               F
So many riches, so many souls
C
Everything we see we want to possess

If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me

Chorus:
If you love somebody
If you love someone
If you love somebody
If you love someone set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)

Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
Set them free
(Free, free, set them free)
