Please, Captain, let me go downtown
     F             G                 C
It's Sunday and my friends won't be around
     G                                   C
I've been to church like I'm supposed to do
       F              G                     C
I have prayed that my girl's gonna be there too

And Jesus said to me
C   G/B Am     G  Am
One day you'll be free

But for now, every Sunday, there's dancing in the square
      F                 C                  G              C
We'll sing our father's songs, there'll be freedom in the air
      G                         C
We'll plant a seed, maybe it'll grow
   F       G               C
So please, Captain, let me go

      Am        G              C               F
And I try and I try, I'm going down to Freedom Square
       Am            G             C
That's right, that's right, that's right
      Am          G                C              F
And I try, that's right, I'm gonna meet my people there
       Am            G             C
That's right, that's right, that's right

Well I slaved all week and the day has come around
           F                     G             C
When I can slip these chains and lay my burden down
   G                                   C
On Freedom Square, Old Hannah shine on bright
       F               G               C
On the working man and make him feel alright

Today we're on our own

We're taking it back home
    F               C           G              C
And up from the plantation, the line is coming through
             F                C             G                C
Like they're dancing in their shackles, the way they used to do
    G                             C
And every step they take is gonna be
    F                G                C
One further down the road for you and me
