[Verse 1]
If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be traveling on, now
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see
[Pre-Chorus]
But if I stay here with you, girl
Things just couldn't be the same
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you cannot change
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And the bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows, I can't change
[Bridge]
[Verse 2]
Bye, bye, baby, it's been a sweet love, yeah yeah
Though this feeling I can't change
But please don't take it so badly
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame
[Pre-Chorus]
But, if I stay here with you, girl
Things just couldn't be the same
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you'll never change
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And the bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows, I can't change
Lord help me, I can't change
[Outro]
Lord, I can't change
Won't you fly high, free bird, yeah
[GUITAR SOLO]
Bre McCarley Esta canción comenzó como una balada sin los solos de guitarra al final, y Lynyrd Skynyrd la grabó de esa manera por primera vez en 1972. El guitarrista Allen Collins había estado trabajando en la canción de forma intermitente durante los dos años anteriores. En el momento de la grabación, la canción tenía solo 7 1/2 minutos de duración, pero durante el año siguiente, Collins continuó refinando la canción hasta que se grabó para el corte final de Pr pronunciado Leh-nerd Skin-nerd en 1973.
This song began as a ballad without the guitar solos at the end, and Lynyrd Skynyrd recorded it that way for the first time in 1972. Guitarist Allen Collins had been working on the song on and off for the previous two years. At the time of recording, the song was only 7 1/2 minutes long, but throughout the next year, Collins continued to refine the song until it was recorded for the final cut of Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd in 1973.
www.orbitarock.com Collins escribió la música mucho antes de que a Ronnie Van Zant se le ocurriera la letra. Van Zant finalmente se inspiró una noche e hizo que Collins y Gary Rossington lo tocaran una y otra vez hasta que él escribió las palabras.
Collins wrote the music long before Ronnie Van Zant came up with lyrics for it. Van Zant finally got inspired one night and had Collins and Gary Rossington play it over and over until he wrote the words.
https://societyofrock.com La letra trata sobre un hombre que le explica a una chica por qué no puede establecerse y comprometerse. Las líneas iniciales, "Si me voy de aquí mañana, ¿todavía me recordarías?" fueron inspirados por la novia de Allen Collins, Kathy, quien le había hecho esta misma pregunta durante una pelea.
The lyrics are about a man explaining to a girl why he can't settle down and make a commitment. The opening lines, "If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?" were inspired by Allen Collins' girlfriend Kathy, who had asked him this very question during a fight.
www.guitarworld.com A pesar de tener tres guitarristas, "Free Bird" se abre con un órgano como instrumento principal, dando más impacto a las guitarras cuando llegan. En las primeras versiones de la canción, esta sección se hacía en piano, pero Al Kooper convenció a la banda de que el órgano era el camino a seguir.
Despite having three guitarists, "Free Bird" opens with an organ as the lead instrument, giving the guitars more impact when they arrive. In early versions of the song, this section was done on piano, but Al Kooper convinced the band that organ was the way to go.
"Si me voy de aquí mañana, ¿aún me recordarías?"
La última gota. Una vez que escucha esto de su mujer, ha decidido tomar el camino abierto en su lugar. Sabe que no puede tener ambos, pero ahora sabe cuál realmente quiere más. El resto de la canción la está consolando porque todavía la ama, pero necesita más el camino abierto y su música. Es un adiós agridulce. La última mitad del último verso, sale por la puerta, entra en su camioneta y conduce por la carretera. Es en este punto que se da cuenta de lo que le depara el futuro.
“If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?”
The final straw. Once he hears this coming from his woman, he has decided to take the open road in lieu of her. He knows he can’t have both, but he knows now which one he truly wants more. The rest of the song he is consoling her because he still loves her, but he needs the open road and his music more. It’s a bittersweet goodbye. The last half of the last verse, he is walking out the door, into his truck and driving down the road. It is at this point that he realizes what his future holds for him now.

El solo de guitarra de 5 minutos alcanza picos y clímax a lo largo de su curso, simbolizando los altibajos de sus giras, así como sus emociones a través de diferentes patrones y ritmos, que finalmente se desvanecen en el silencio simbólico de él continuando por este camino indefinidamente.
The 5-minute guitar solo reaches peaks and climaxes throughout its course, symbolizing the ups and downs of his tours, as well as his emotions through different patterns and rhythms, eventually fading into silence symbolic of him continuing down this road indefinitely.
Esta es una parte de la canción que en realidad es realmente progresiva desde donde comenzamos en términos del viaje que hemos seguido y este es un punto importante para mencionar las progresiones y la música progresiva porque nadie realmente clasificaría esto o ciertamente no lo haría. No clasificamos a Lynyrd Skynyrd como una banda de rock progresivo en términos de ser fundamentalmente ese género, pero en términos del viaje que hemos realizado, hemos progresado muchísimo porque no solo hemos cambiado en el tempo, sino que en general sentimos que todo está bien. diferente ahora donde tenemos solos de guitarra y fases de fusión donde comenzamos a un tempo tan lento en la introducción una sensación totalmente diferente Te garantizo que no hay nadie escuchando esto mirando su reloj pensando cuándo va a terminar esta canción porque estoy comprado hay tantos lugares interesantes que visitamos.
This is a part of the song that is actually really progressive from where we started in terms of the journey that we've gone on and this is an important point to bring up about progressions and progressive music because nobody would really class this or certainly wouldn't class Lynyrd Skynyrd as a progressive rock band in terms of being fundamentally that genre but in terms of the journey that we've gone on we have progressed a hell of a lot because not only have we changed in tempo but the whole feel everything's different now where we're having guitar solos and melting phases where we started at such a slow tempo playing in the intro a totally different feel I guarantee you that there's nobody listening to this looking at their watch thinking when is this song going to finish because I'm bought there are so many interesting places that we visit on.

Algo que mencioné todo el tiempo sobre composiciones y actuaciones que quieres hacer en ese viaje y al final quieres estar en la cima de la montaña y eso es sin duda lo que tenemos aquí la evolución de esta pista desde el verso al final es casi como dos canciones separadas, pero la forma en que se entrelazan y se interpretan está muy bien ejecutada porque nunca cuestionas el viaje.Estamos en una canción totalmente diferente de alguna manera Lynyrd Skynyrd logró navegar a través de esta canción. sin problemas, así que es tan interesante todo el tiempo y nunca lo cuestionas
Something that I mentioned all the time about compositions and performances that you want to go on that journey and at the end you want to be at the peak of the mountain and that's certainly what we've got here the evolution of this track from the verse to the end is almost like two separate songs but the way that it's been weaved together and performed is so well executed because you're never questioning the journey we're in a totally different song somehow Lynyrd Skynyrd managed to navigate their way through this song seamlessly so there it is so interesting the whole time and you never question it
