I was given a request to do this one over the Christmas period, I had the basics of the song, but sooner than make a hash of it I said that I would learn it. Does anyone have the words and chords, and Who was the origional artist. Cheers Oombanjo. |

He knows about such things! The song is called "I Shall Be Released". Personally, I think it's a beauty. It should be easy to find with a Google search. |

I SHALL BE RELEASED by 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. Enjoy! Roger in Baltimore |
04 Jan 05 - 05:07 PM (#1371340) Subject: Chords Add: I SHALL BE RELEASED From: Roger in Baltimore From dylanchords.com. I'm at work, so I haven't tried these. A couple of other sites had similar chords in the key of A Major. I suspect that is the key Dylan used. He may have achieved that by playing these chords with a capo on the second fret as the chords are more natural in G major. G C/g G G Am They say ev'rything can be replaced, Bm Am G Yet ev'ry distance is not near. G Am So I remember ev'ry face Bm Am G Of ev'ry man who put me here. G C *) *) Am in subsequent I see my light come shining verses Bm D *) G From the west unto the east. G Am Any day now, any day now, Bm D/a G I shall be released. Enjoy! Roger in Baltimore |
