Chords for The Phoenix - Julia Ecklar

[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ In a tower of flame [Am] in capsule _ 12, [Dm] _ _ [C] I was [Dm] _ _
there.
[F] I know not where [D] [C] they laid [Am] my bones, [D] it could [C] be _ [D] anywhere. _ _ _
[F] But when fire and smoke [C] had faded, [Am] _ _ [D] the darkness left [C] _ my [E] _ side.
[Am] And I found my [Dm] soul in a _ [E]
spaceship's soul, [A] riding home on [Em] a trail [Am] of light. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ [C] And my wings are made [G]
of tungsten, _ [E] my flesh of glass and [Am] steel.
_ _ [C] _
I am the joy [G] of Terra _ for [D] the power that [C] I _ wield.
_ [Am] _ Once upon [C] a lifetime, _ _ [G]
I died a [E] pioneer. _ _
_ [C] Now I sing within [G]
a _ [E] spaceship's heart, [Am] does [G] _
anybody _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
hear? _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ [Dm] Before each _ [C] morning's launch, [Am] they know [Dm] _ that [C] _
I [Dm] am _ _ there.
[F] To the soul that [D] warms [C] this [Am] vessel's hull, [Dm] they say [C] a silent [D] _
prayer.
_ [F] I am father, [D] ship, [C] and spirit [Am] _ [Dm] of the dream for which _ [C] they [E] _ _
[Am] strive.
For I am [Dm] man at the hands [E] of man, [Am] see us rocket _ [Em]
for [Am] the sky.
_ _ And _
_ _ [Em] _ [C] my wings are made [G] of _ tungsten, _ [E] my flesh of glass [Am] and steel. _
[G] _ [C] I am the joy [G] of Terra for [D] the _ power that _ [C] I _ wield.

Once upon [C] a lifetime, _ [G] I died a [E] pioneer.
_ _ _ [C] Now I sing within [G] a _ [E] spaceship's heart, [Am]
does [G] _ anybody [Am] _ _ _ _
_ _ hear? _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] My thunder _ [C] and the morning [Am] _ skies, [Dm] yes, _ _ [C]
I [Dm] am _ _ [F] here.
Though lost to [C] flame when I was [Am]
man, [D] now I ride [C] her without [D] _
fear.
[C] _ [F] For I am more [D] than [C] man [Am] now, [D] and man built me [C] with _ [E] _
[Am] pride.
I led the way [Dm] and I lead [E] the way of [Am] man's [Em] future in [Am] the sky. _ _ _ _
_ _ [Em] And [C] my wings are made [G] of _ tungsten, _ [E] my flesh of glass [Am] and steel.
