D                              C             G
Staring at the dark again you left you silhouette
        D     C G D
upon my pillow
D                                   C
Right inside the night I'm waiting for
                 G               D    C G D
the light seems like I'm in the middle

Working for something that I can't touch
And sometimes can't even believe in, woah, woah
Cradled by the hands of fate
The faith that sometimes wraps around too tight,
so tight

Chorus:
               D C     G          D  C G
They call me free, but I call me fool
               D C     G          D  C G
They call me free, but I call me fool

Well I look back at April
But she won't look back at me, oh, no, no, no
So I pray in May for June to stay
But she just came to wash into the sea, away

Chorus:
They call me free
But I call me a fool, hey, hey
They call me free
But I call me a fool
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

  D                      C
Slipped down to Mexico started messin' with her
 G
yellow afro
  D                               C
Slipped down between the sheets started talking
       G
'bout Pistol Pete
  D                           C
Slipped down to the African started talking
        G
'bout what she can do
D                 C                   G
And here we are again back where we started

Slipped down to the dark again
You left your silhouette on my pillow, yeah, yeah
Well I'm right inside the night, I'm waiting
for the light
Seems like I'm in the, seems like I'm always
in the middle

They call me free
They call me free
Free
But I call me a...
