I Shall Be Released Lyrics - Singles - Jerry Garcia Band

They say everything can be replaced 

Yet every distance is not near 

So I remember every face 

Of every man who put me here 

I see my light come shining 

From the west unto the east 

Any day now, any day now 

I shall be released 

They say every man needs protection 

They say every man must fall 

But I swear I see my reflection 

Some place so high above this wall 

I see my light come shining 

From the west unto the east 

Any day now, any day now 

I shall be released 

Yonder down here in this lonely crowd 

Is a man who swears he's not to blame 

All day long I hear him shout so loud 

Crying out that he's been framed 

I see my light come shining 

From the west unto the east 

Any day now, any day now 

I shall be released 

Any day now, any day now 

I shall be released
