(I Wish I Knew)

_ALL

_(unison)

I wish I knew how it would feel to be free

I wish I could break all the chains holding me

I wish I could say all the things that I should say

_(harmony)

Say 'em loud say 'em clear

For the whole round world to hear

‍

I wish I could be like a bird in the sky

How sweet it would be

_ALL

(^S Oh) if I found I could fly

_ALL

_‍I’d soar to the sun and look down at the sea

And I'd sing cos I know

Yes I'd sing cos I know

Oh I'd sing cos I know-oh________!

Say it loud

_ALL

For the whole round world to hear

Say it loud say it clear

For the whole round world to hear______!
