C We will fly G way up high

You know the F world won’t fall apart
C And you will free the G beautiful bird
Am That’s caught inside your F heart

F Oh she Gsus2 cries so loud
F Casts her Gsus2 wild note
F Over Gsus2 water and C cloud

F That’s C way it’s gonna Dm be little Bb darlin’

Verse:
C You will grow and un-G til you go
Am I’ll be F right there by your side

Am In one bird’s F lonely cry
C See them trying G every way they know how
Am To make their spirit F fly
Pre-Chorus:
Can’t you Gsus2 see him?
F He’s down on Gsus2 the ground
F He has a Gsus2 broken wing
F Looking Gsus2 all around C
Chorus:
F That’s C way it’s gonna Dm be little Bb darlin’
F We’ll go C riding on the Dm horses Bb yeah yeah
F Way up in C the sky Dm little Bb darlin’
