C
My wish is my command
F C
I demand the things I see
F C
I don’t know where they come from
F Am
But they are next to free
C
I have what I have
F C
Cause I have the right to have it
F C
To hell with all the consequences
F Am
I don’t need to see
C F Am
Thank god I live in a free country

I don’t think much of strangers
F C
Much of you or of your kind
F C
You best fit in or you're free to find
F Am
A better place to be
C
I say what I say
F C
Cause I have the right to say it
F C
To hell with all the differences
F Am
It’s all greek to me
C F Am
Thank god I live in a free country
C F C
Thank god I live in a free country
F
It’s great to live in a wonderland
Dm
Where no one needs a helping hand
C
An arms length from a trusted brand
And sheltered from the world
F
The world’s turned to a scary place
Dm
For the top end of the human race
C
Oh plastic god in outer space
Wrap me in your warm embrace
Dm
We’re winning wars and losing face
F
But half the fun is in the chase
C Am
And the bleeding hearts are wasting precious time
Dm F
on bold face lies
C
on their bold face lies

C
I don’t care about the noise
F C
I don’t care about the numbers
F C
This wonderland is mine to run
F Am
and I’ll do what I please
C
I do what I do, cause
F C
I have the right to do it
F C
To strip from post to pillar
F Am
from the mountains to the sea
C F Am
Thank god I live in a free country
