Verse 1 
Dm I feel the wind blowing through my doorway,
 it's telling me that the summer's gone, 
BbDmCDm and the winter waits in shadow, waiting with the storm.
Dm I am old and my bones are weary,
 and my son, he is all I have, 
BbDmCDm but he has gone to fight for freedom, leaving with my heart.
CFBbA All my life I have loved this land, worked it with my hands,
BbFCDm but can this freedom send the rain when seed is in the ground ?
BbFBbA Can this freedom heal the pain and bring my boy back to me again?
DmBbC - ADmDm Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh. (2x)
Dm I watched them sail from the rocks below me,
 'twas like the sea in its endless rage, 
BbCDmCDm many fall on the road to freedom, dying on the stones.
CFBbA All my life I have loved this land, worked it with my hands,
BbFCDm but can your freedom send the rain when seed is in the ground ?
BbFBbA Can your freedom heal the pain and bring my boy back to me again?
DmBbC - ADm Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh.
DmBbC - ABbDm Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh. - - - Oh oh.

BbDm 'Cos he was lost in some dark forest,
CABbCDm and snow was falling down, falling on the ground.
