We don't have many pop songs in the Digital Tradition, but some Dylan songs are on the borderline of the "Folk Canon," so many of his songs have been included (more than I'd like to see, but that's a personal opinion). The Digital Tradition version of this song came out a bit sloppy. Here are the lyrics, as published.
-Joe Offer-

I Shall Be Released
(Bob Dylan)

They say ev'rything can be replaced,
Yet ev'ry distance is not near.
So I remember ev'ry face
Of ev'ry man who put me here.
I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east.
Any day now, any day now,
I shall be released.

They say ev'ry man needs protection,
They say ev'ry man must fall.
Yet I swear I see my reflection
Some place so high above this wall.
I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east.
Any day now, any day now,
I shall be released.

Standing next to me in this lonely crowd,
Is a man who swears he's not to blame.
All day long I hear him shout so loud,
Crying out that he was framed.
I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east.
Any day now, any day now,
I shall be released.
