D  C  G  A  G  D   
 
(D)At the breaking (G)of the dawn, (A)day is born aga(D)in 
(D)Just another (G)missing link (A)in an endless (D)chain 
(D)Filling up the (G)empty space, (A)led by one who's (D)gone 
(D)Freedom's child was (G)born today, (A)singin' freedom (D)songs  
 
With his colors flyin' high and his gun in hand 
Volunteered to fight and die in a foreign land 
Just another minor chord, in a worn-out song 
Freedom's child is marching there singin' freedom songs 
 
Repeat intro chords 
 
Driftin' through a crowded park, passing an empty swing 
Hidden in the sparrow's eye, when it's on the wind 
Planted on a lonely hill, with his name unknown 
Freedom's child was laid to rest, singin' freedom songs 
 
(Repeat first verse ) 
 
Freedom's child was laid to rest singin' freedom songs
