[Am] _ _ [E] Welcome back, folks.
[B] You know, Carolyn Wonderland continues [A] to attract fans to hear her unique brand of amplified soul blues
with her unbelievable guitar chops and a growing collection of really [Em] good songs, like this one, Victory of Fly.
This next song is [A] a song called A Victory of Flying or The Victory of Flying.
I was on my honeymoon in Siwa and Naho playing at the guitar festival
because [E] I'm cheap and combine things like my honeymoon and the guitar [Em] festival together.
[A] And we were having a great [Em] time and I [A] found myself [C] really watching this [Dm] bird.
This poor bird kept getting knocked to the ground every [A] which way it went and it kept getting [G] back up and going again.
And he's [A] tiny, you know, and statue.
And I started [E] to realize I had a lot in common with that bird, you know.
You keep getting knocked down, you keep going.
[C] So [A] _ originally I thought I just wrote the song about the bird.
Now I'm starting to think there's a little more universal story in there. _
