[Verse]
Leaves start falling
              C
 my cold wind blows
And soon get covered
        F      C
by the winter snow
Am7
Birds start singin'
                        Am
 when the spring rolls 'round
F
Flowers blooming
             G       C
through the thawing ground
C    F   Am   F  G  C

[Verse]
C
When you love somebody
         F          C
 and the love grows cold
The sun starts shining
          F          C
when you let it all go
          Am7
There's a certain kinda
                        Am
hurting only time can heal
F
  That's a pretty good
                G     C
 picture of the way I feel

[Chorus]
C
I'm a little bit hurt
       F        C
but a lot more free
        Am7
I ain't saying that you
  G            F       C
never took a toll on me
For what it's worth,
        F       C
 I can finally see
           Am7        G
That I'm a little bit hurt
      F        C
but a lot more free
            Am7
Yeah, I'm a little bit
  G          F
 hurt but a lot more free
C   F  C  Am  G  F  C
C   F  Am  F  G  C

[Verse]
C
From this mountain
       F      C
 I can see so far
                    F
Rivers running like deep
      C
deep scars
Am7
Carrying the lifeblood
            Am
 through my veins
      F
Is it crazy that I'm
              G       C
grateful for all the pain?

[Chorus]
 C
'Cause I'm a little bit
            F        C
hurt but a lot more free

        Am7             G
I ain't saying that you never
        F       C
 took a toll on me
For what it's worth,
        F       C
I can finally see
           Am7
That I'm a little bit
 G          F        C
 hurt but a lot more free
            Am7        G
Yeah, I'm a little bit hurt
       F
 but a lot more free
C    F   C    Am  G  F  C
C    F   Am   F   G  C

How to play A Lot More Free: key, chords and progression

These are A Lot More Free chords by Max McNown on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

A Lot More Free by Max McNown is built around C major (no sharps or flats), with 5 chords in all: C, F, Am7, Am and G.

The progression the song keeps returning to is C – F – C – Am7 (I – IV – I – vi7 in C major). In solfa, that is doh – fah – doh – lah. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes G, C, Em7, Em, D (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 80% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
