 I used to be a rolling stone, you know  

 If the cause was right 
     A7                Bb     Am7    G    C/D 
 I'd leave to find the answer on the road  
   G 
 I used to be a heart beating for someone  

 But the times have changed 
A7                    Bb      Am7       G 
   The less I say the more my work gets done 
[Estribillo]

 'Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom  
          C              F/C       C         G 
 From the day that I was born I've waved the flag  
 F7                           E7             Am7 
 Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man

 Yeah, gave me peace of mind my daddy never had
