Verse 1
[D] [D4] [D]
Just like Philadelphia
[D/F#] [G]
Freedom means a lot to me
[G/F#] [Em] [Em/F#] [G]
In between the place I’ve been
[D]
And where I’m goin’
[D] [D4] [D]
I can see America
[D/F#] [G]
Tryin’ not to show her age
[G/F#] [Em] [Em/F#] [G]
Even though the winds of change
[D]
Keep on blowin’
Chorus
[G] [A4] [A]
And I would lay your body down and rock your tears away
[G] [A4] [A]
But it’s much too late for now to be like yesterday
[G] [E]
And the time is running out and we still have to say
[Bm/D]
Goodby---e

When the world was young and warm

So in love and living for
[D]
Everything new
[D] [D4] [D]
But I know Philadelphia

The winter wind will slowly take

Your heart and soul until it makes
[D]
Nothing of you

And I would lay your body down and rock your tears away

I tip my old top hat to you

Will love you like I do
