Biography:
Levellers is a popular English rock band influenced by punk and traditional English music. The band is based in Brighton, England, where they were founded in 1988. There are several stories regarding how they got their name; from the Levellers, a radically democratic faction of Oliver Cromwell's New Model Army; as a reference to "The Level", a flat open space near where members of the band used to live in Brighton; or simply, according to guitarist, Simon Friend, a word they chose from a dictionary.

[Chorus]
E D E
If I could chose the life I please then I would be a boatman
E D E
On the canals and the rivers free no hasty words are spoken
D A
My only law is the river breeze that takes me to the open seas
E D E
If I could chose the life I please then I would be a boatman
[Chorus]
E D E
If I could chose the life I please then I would be a rover
E D E
And if the roads was not for me then I would chose another
D A
Mountains and the valleys deep where I would take this weary feet
E D E
If I could chose the life I please then I would be a rover
[Verse]
Bm A Bm A
But these things are so hard for me I cannot chose my own destiny
Bm A E
And all things that I want to see are so unclean
E D E
Well I wish I could chose the life I please, I am not a free man
E D E
Others rule my destiny but my will is never broken
[Verse]

I know some day I will be everything that I dreamed I'd be

E D E
If I could chose the life I please then I would be a boatman

My only law is the river breeze that takes me to the open seas
