I Shall Be Released

Bob Dylan

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.

Chorus:
I see my light come shinin'
From the west unto the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released .

They say ev'ry man needs protection
They say that ev'ry man must fall
Yet I swear I see my reflection
Somewhere so high above this wall .

Chorus

Now yonder standing there 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.

Chorus
