[C]
[Eb] [Eb]
never wanted to fly [Cm] high
[Eb] I was too fond of walking
So when you looked at me and touched the [Cm] sky
[Eb] I thought it was your way [Bb] of talking
But then you said [Eb] you'd built some wing
You found out how it could be done
But I was doubtful of [Cm] everything
I never [Bb] thought you'd [Eb] reach the sun
You were so [Cm] clever with your [Eb] hands
I watched you for hours
With the glue and the rubber bands
The feathers and the lace and [Bb] the flowers
[Bb] And the [Eb] finished wings, they glowed so bright
Like some bird of glory
I began to [C] envy you, [Cm] you flight
[Eb] Like some old [Bb] hero, [Eb]
dory
[C]
[Bb] [Eb] And you tried to get me to [Cm] go with you
[Eb] You tried always to dare me
But I looked and the skies were blue
[Ab] I thought [Eb] the height [Bb] would scare me
But I carried your wings for you
Up the path and to the cliff face
Kissed you goodbye [Eb] and watched [Cm] your eyes
[Eb] Already [Bb] bright [Eb] with sunlight
[C]
[F] [Bb] [Eb] And I believed all that you said
I believed all that you told me
You're the thing no man had ever done
You touched the stars [Bb] to please me
And then I saw [Eb] your white wings fail
I saw your [Cm] feathers falter
[Eb] And I watched you drop like more gold
To the white [Eb] green water
[Bb] [Eb]
Some are born to fly [Cm] high
And [Eb] some are born to follow
And some are born to touch the [Cm] sky
And some walk in the hollow
As I watched your body fall
I [Eb] knew really you [Cm] had won
Pure grey was not the earth
[Eb] But the reflection of the sun
