[Opening]
[A]I can’t really explain it, I [A]haven’t got the words
It’s a [F#m]feeling that you can’t [E]control [E]
I [Bm]suppose it’s like forgetting, [Fm]losing who you are
And at the [F]same time something makes you [E]whole

[section 2]
It’s [Am]like that there’s a [G]music, [F]playing in your [C]ear
And I’m [Am]listening, and I’m [G]listening, and t[F]hen I disap[E]pear [E]

[section 3]
And then [C]I feel a change, like a [Am]fire deep inside
[Dm]Something bursting [C]me wide open, [D]impossible to [G]hide
And [C]suddenly I’m flying, [C]flying like a bird
Like [F]Electricity, [Fm]electricity
Sparks [C]inside of me, and I’m [G]free, [G]I’m [C]free

[section 4]
[A]It’s a bit like being angry, [A]it’s a bit like being scared
Confused [F#m]and all mixed up and mad [E]as hell [E]
[Bm]It’s like when you’ve been [Fm]crying, and you’re empty and you’re full
I [F]don’t know what it is, it’s [E]hard to tell,

[section 5]
It’s [Am]like that there’s a [G]music, [F]playing in your [C]ear
But the [Am]music is [G]impossible, impossible to [F]hear, [E] [E]

[section 6]
But then [C]I feel it move me, like [Am]a burning deep inside
[Dm]Something bursting [C]me wide open, [D]impossible to [G]hide
And [C]suddenly I’m flying, [C]flying like a bird
Like [F]Electricity, [Fm]electricity

[Closing]
And I’m [G]free, I’m [Am]free, and I’m [G]free, I’m [Am]free
[Fm]Electricity sparks [C]inside of me
And I’m [G]free, [G]I’m [F#m]free [E] [D] [A]
[F]Oh, [E]I’m [A]free
