The "Liberty" Bell

Liberty Bell 6 5Artist Name
00:00 / 01:36

The “Liberty” Bell

By Roberta Lea


 

Verse 1 Am D G Em

 

Ding dong

Is that freedom in the distance I hear

Sing song

I thought I heard it but it’s not very clear

Too long

It takes to travel to the least of these

To people like me

 

Verse 2

 

Bang bang

Goes the bullet all over the world

Shame shame

How the rich will use the poor boys and girls

Gang gang

Were they fighting for the least of these

For people like me

 

Chorus

 

All this time, all this time

You were fighting for your freedom

All this time, all this time

You were fighting for your freedom

But never for mine


 

A few years ago we took the kids 

To visit one of our favorite cities 

Philly, to kick it with the family

And while we were there 

We stopped to visit a bell called

Liberty

And as I studied her, the irony

Wasn’t lost on me

She represented a dominion that was supposed to free

But after she rang she broke

And that symbol of freedom would never ring true

Again

 

Rang a silent bell

One that could never be broken

Key: G

Progression: 6-4-5-1, 4-5

 

Verse 1 (Em, C, G, D)

 

All the colors in the valley touch the Shenandoah sky

An exhibition in a gallery that is massive and divine

We are tall and we are rooted like the appalachian trees

But like the river we are powered by the pull of mighty seas

Pre-chorus (C D)

The waves are being lifted and the sand is being sifted 

For a treasure that is waiting to be found

 

Chorus (Em, C, G, D)

 

If dreams are somewhere in the distance

Love is somewhere within reach

Someday we’ll be the lesson that somebody else will teach

If there’s someone on the mountain top

Somehow we’ll make the climb

If there’s something in the water

Then I’m somewhere in the tide

 

Verse 2 (Em, C, G, D)

All the footprints in the shore line are a story to be heard

Every grain and every gravel could account for every word

In a land that is for lovers there is room for every kind

Every voice, every heart, every soul and every mind

 

Pre-chorus (C-D)

The waves are being lifted and the sand is being sifted

For a treasure that is waiting to be found

 

Chorus (Em, C, G, D)

Bridge (C-D)

 

What is happening? Can you feel the gravity?

A rising tide is lifting all the boats

Chorus (Em, C, G, D)

*Make Up Your Mind*

Notes

​*Very slow build with extremely dramatic end*

Song starts with acoustic guitar for first verse and first chorus. Bass jumps in on verse 2 and second chorus. Drums mildly kick in on bridge. Last chorus is full throttle, electric guitar shredding.

Verse 1  (Guitar only) (Em Am D/Am C D Em)

 

You said you’d move any mountain

Cross any ocean for me

You said I’m everything that you wanted 

And everything that you need

 

But now I see you switching

Boy you’ve got an itch that

You just want to relieve

You want my love without commitment

My touch without connection

The wife without the ring

 

Chorus

Am

You better make up your mind

D

Make up your mind

Em

Boy you’re running out of time

Am

You better make up your mind

D

Make up your mind

Em

Before I make up mine

Verse 2 (enter bass)

Em 

The special treatment

Am D

Made me a believer

Em

I admit that it’s true

But underneath it

Am D 

Lies, boy you deceived me

Em

I’m embarrassed of you

Em

The lights, the camera, action

Am D     Em

For friends you always put on a show

Am

But when I’m ready for action 

C D Em

You lock the doors and say you’re closed

I won’t be back again

 

Chorus

 

Bridge (2x)

Em

Your love is sweet and spicy

D

Hot, cold, naughty and nice

You said it’d be unlikely

That you’d ever think twice

Em

You talked me up to heaven 

D

But dragged me down to hell

C

I’m tired of the stories you

I was just a child a flower barely into bloom

On the day I reached the end of the crossroads

G                                                 C                     G    

Early morning sun I taste the air of middle June

On the day I reached the end of the crossroads

Curls pressed into longer locs

White dress with the matching stockings

All prepared to walk across that stage

Other dads in simple garb

I lay my eyes on upon my father

There was no one like my daddy in his uniform 

 

Verse 2

(Same progression as verse 1)

 

Never in a million years could I ever dream

I’d meet you in a cafe overseas 

You overcome your fears 

I’m not as stuck up as I seem 

And so you leave a note with our friend Mindy





 

Underway for thirty days

We keep in touch to close the distance

Trying to remember what you look like

No one else is in the room

As you walk in your navy dress blues

Trying to control these butterflies

Tonight

 

Dark and handsome 6 foot 5

My heart can not believe it’s eyes

There’s nothing like a man in a uniform

There is no one like my boyfriend…

In his uniform

 

Verse 3

 

Nine months in making, how I’m anticipating 

My baby boy I know you’ll be here soon

You will join your sister, my miss and little mister

Two flowers that I’ll cultivate to bloom

 

Chubby cheeks and big brown eyes

A smile that keeps me in your pocket

There’s no telling what the future holds

But I hope it’s filled with joy

And blessings for you my baby boy

I hope you reap the good things that we've sown

Tomorrow 

 

C                       Em                    C        Em

Oh, my darling you will see a world of possibilities

I've been looking for her every since

                   Eb

I can't explain it. I don't know where she went

                  F                              Gm            Eb

But I can hear her crying if I care enough to listen

                                            Bb-F-Eb

For the girl gone missing (can you hear her crying)

 

Verse 2

                  Bb                           F                            Eb

She had a heart of fire and ready to take the world

                       Bb                             F                                       Eb 

The biggest dreams and desires wrapped up in that little girl

                  Bb                            F                                        Eb

But she shed few tears and fought a few fears  that came around and hijacked her mind

      Bb               F                            Eb

Life a decoy robbed her of joy then she got left behind

Chorus

 

                  F                                Gm 

I've been looking for her every since

           Eb

For the girl gone missing (can you hear her crying)

 

Bridge

 

                 F                               Gm

I've been looking for forever since

                 Eb

It's like searching for an old best friend

                        F                                  Gm

Except she's trapped out of this heart of mine

Eb

And that much harder to find

Chorus

                                                        Bb-F-Eb 

When you’re the girl gone missing (can you hear her crying)

                             Bb-F-Eb 

The girl going missing

 

Outro

                Bb                          F                             Eb

She had a heart of fire and ready to take the world

                   Bb                                F                                  Eb 

The biggest dreams and desires wrapped up in that little girl

Bb             F                                 Eb

Maybe if I show her we’re not alone

Bb

She’ll come back home

Well, my hearts been sitting heavy, just can’t seem to let it go

Little things that make me angry and got me feeling low

F(1)                                                                     B(4)        F(1)

So, I scheduled an appointment with my therapist to talk

          Dm(6)        C(5)               F(1)

Just a little safety net before I fall

F(1)                                                               B(4)            F(1)

Well, I told her ‘bout my problems, my issues and fears

        C(5)                                                                 B(4)    F(1)

Cause I could throw down on a bottle, deep dive til 3 a.m.

    C(5)                                                                   B(4)    F(1)

Throw shots back with the bestie and then do it all again

F(1)                                                                   B(4)    F(1)

Verse 2

F(1)                                                           B(4)            F(1)

Then I went to see my baby, he could see it on my face

F(1)                                                        C(5)

That I’ve been in my feelings and it’s just one of them days

F(1)                                                          B(4)        F(1)

More like getting lost for hours doing what I love to do

    C(5)                    B(4)        F(1)

Taking walks or long hot showers or cuddling up with my boo

        F(1)                B(4)            F(1)

Yeah, some prayer and meditation always seems to clear my mind

    Dm(6)            C(5)        F(1)

Getting something a little bit stronger this time

 

Verse 3

    F(1)                B(4)        F(1)

Well, I met the perfect stranger just as I was in my head

F(1)                        C(5)        

She held my hands to comfort me, and this is what she said

F(1)                    B(4)            F(1)

“The Lord told me to tell you that he hears you when you call

    Dm(6)        C(5)            B-F(4-1)

Just a little safety net in case you fall”

 

Chorus

        C(5)                                                          B(4)        F(1)

Cause I could throw down on a bottle, deep dive til 3 a.m.

Throw shots back with the bestie and then do it all again

    C(5)                                                  Dm-C-B(6-5-4)

Yeah, I love a good oasis or some Colorado Pine

                     B(4)                         C(5)                F-C-F(1-5-1)

But I got something a little bit stronger this time

Verse 1 

A lonely mother gazing out of her window

Staring at a son that she just can't touch

If at any time he's in a jam she'll be by his side

But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much

But all the praying just ain't helping at all

'Cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble

So, he goes out and he makes his money the best way he know how

Another body laying cold in the gutter

Chorus

Don't go chasing waterfalls

Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to

I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all

But I think you're moving too fast

Verse 2

Little precious has a natural obsession for temptation

But he just can't see

She give him loving that his body can't handle

But all he can say is, "Baby, it's good to me"

One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror

But he doesn't recognize his own face

His health is fading and he doesn't know why

Three letters took him to his final resting place

Y'all don't hear me

Chorus

Don't go chasing waterfalls

Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to

I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all

But I think you're moving too fast

Eb

The door could be stubborn with three bolted locks

As the memories sent her soul into shock

 

Pre-chorus

    Fm                                            Ab

That small broken child, will always stay with her

          Fm                                         Ab                                 Eb

The ghosts in the rooms were crying and begging to stay

 

Hook

                                         Fm

But she threw them all away

She threw them all away (2x)

 

Verse 2

She went down to the basement…the stench in the air

Let her know there were more than just critters down there

              Fm                                Ab                                      Eb

He got drunk in the darkness cause the world wasn’t fair, no no

 

 

Pre-chorus

Fm                                       Ab

Cobwebs and corners covered with glass 

         Eb

If rooms have emotions this one didn’t laugh

The bars on the windows made it feel more like a cage

C#              Ab                   Eb

It can be scary to look within

                                  C#                             Ab                          Eb

Oh, but sometimes, you gotta tear it down just to start again

All her hopes and her dreams had survived all this time

They were covered in dust but they were easy to find

She opens a box and pulls out a picture

            Eb

That small hopeful child was starting to miss her

Her spirit is new and clear like the sky after rain
