For Del Shannon. At least it started out that way.

lyrics

THE LIBERTY YEARS

( a song for Del Shannon)
Am
When your moment finally comes
G
You see it clear and true
Am
The love you’ve hunted all your life
G
Was also hunting you
D Am
All you wanted from the world

Was in your hands
G
to give, or take
D Am
It’s strange to think it’s all the same
G D
For the good and great
Am G
Ahhhh ahhh ahhh ahhhhhhh ahhhh

Am
The world was spinning on your string
G
But strings are known to break
Am
You tried to find your place in time
G
But time’s a lie they tell

D Am G
It’s trite but its’ truer than hell
D Am
There’s nowhere to run,
G D
to or from
Am G
Ahhhhhh ahhhh ahhh ahhhh ahhh (2x)

(Chorus // bridge)
Em D Am
You can’t keep all of your love --- locked away
Em D Am
Losing the liberty years
Em D Am
My own hands are stiff and so sore I could cry

Em A D G
I know we’ve tasted the same sorts of tears

(bring it down)
Am G
I’ve lived in that house, where no one lives
Am
Afraid of my own voice
G
Afraid to give
D Am G
It’s hard to believe when I hear you sing
D Am G
That you ended up their yourself
Am G
Ahhhhhhh ahhhhh ahhh ahhhh ahhhh (2x)

(Chorus // bridge)

Em D Am
You can’t keep all of your love --- locked away
Em D Am
Losing the liberty years
Em D Am
Every note from your heart and your mind
Em A D G
Will light a thousand eyes in the world you left behind
Am
But when your moment finally comes
G
You see it clear and true
Am
The love you’ve hunted all your life
G
Was also hunting you

Am G (repeat to fade)
Ahhhhhhhhh ahhhh ahh ahh
