by Neil Diamond, from the album Serenade 

(intro) F G  C   F   C G7  C    

F        G             C 
 Songs___  to make you free, 
F                G              C 
 And songs that take you to an - other time, 
F          G7               C   
 forgotten reasons that are made of rhyme; 
    F 
for you and me 
    C             G7                      C 
the songs of life    that somehow make us free. 


F           G7                C 
 Then wake    the sleeping child  
F           G7             C 
 and let me sing to you of other times, 
F           G7                   C 
 and let me  make your dreams as sweet as mine, 
    F                      C 
and I will bring______ the gift of song 
G7                   C 
  that only makes us free. 

F             G            C 
 (And) songs__ to fill the heart. 
F             G            C 
   Like quiet candles on a winter's night 
F                 G7                         C   
   they touch the spac-es__ that lies 'tween you and I; 
    F                    C              G7 
and I will sing      the songs of love 
                      C 
that speak to you and me. 


F           G7                C 
 Then wake    the sleeping child  
F           G7             C 
 and let me sing to you of other times, 
F           G7                   C 
 and let me  make your dreams as sweet as mine, 
    F                      C 
and I will bring______ the gift of song 
G7                   C 
  that only makes us free.
