CHORUS
E F#
You open up prison doors
G#m B/D#
You’re setting the captives free
E F#
You’re making a table for
G#m B/D#
The poor and hungry to come and eat
E F#
You comfort the ones who mourn
G#m B/D#
And lead them to jubilee
E F#
You’re filling our hearts with joy
G#m B/D#
You open up, you open up prison doors

VERSE 1
E F#
Pain had me chained up
G#m B/D#
Regret had me down
E F#
Still I know you’re near cause
G#m B/D#
Matter of fact, you’re always here
E F#
The earth is shaking
G#m B/D#
My freedom is on the way
E F#
I can hear the sound
G#m B/D#
I can hear the sound

VERSE 2
E F#
Now that I’m free
G#m B/D#
I’m walking in light again
E F#
I know that you’re with me
G#m B/D#
Matter of fact, you’ve always been
E F#
My souls awakened
G#m B/D#
New life begins today
E F#
My chains are on the ground
G#m B/D#
My chains are on the ground

BRIDGE
E F#
The spirit of God is upon me
G#m B/D#
He overflows with salvation
E F#
He’s pouring rivers of justice
G#m B/D#
He’s gonna shake the foundations
