They shot a man in Soho

Couldn't guess his age

I found his empty journal

I filled up every page

I called up my state senator

They said he wasn't there

The secretary took my name

And man she sounded scared

So I counted my misfortunes

I added up the blame
Bm

I picked through all the garbage
D
I checked off all the names
I read in the newspaper

They'd questioned all my friends
Bm

They hoped that they could my ass
Before I struck again
D

So I sang to myself
Bm

That I want to be free

But the road I must travel
Its end I cannot see

So when thirsty

I will drink

When hungry I will steal

Its end I cannot see

So tonight I walk in anger
Bm

With worn shoes on my feet
Bm

And the road I must travel
Its end I cannot see

And I will sing to myself

That I'm gonna be free
