I Shall Be Released (Finale)

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

They say everything can be replaced

They say every distance is not near

So I remember every face

Of every man who put me here

I see my light come shinin'

From the west down to the east

Any day now, any day now

I shall be released

They say every man needs protection

They say that every man must fall

Yet I swear I see my reflection

Somewhere so high above this wall

I see my light come shinin'

From the west down to the east

Any day now, any day now

I shall be released

Now yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd

A man who swears he's not to blame

All day long I hear him shouting so loud

Just crying out that he was framed

I see my light come shinin'

From the west down to the east

Any day now, any day now

I shall be released
