(Capo 1st fret)
D C G
It makes sense that it should happen this way
Em G
That the sky should break, and the earth should shake
D F C G D
As if to say, sure it all matters, but in such an unimportant way
C G A
As if to say, hey hey-aa-ay
Chorus

Fly away, sweet bird of prey

Nothing can stand in your way
D Dsus4 D A
Sweet bird, if you knew the words
C G A
I know that you'd say, fly, fly away
D C G
It makes sense that it should hurt in this way
Em G
That my heart should break, and my hands should shake
D F C G D
As if to say, sure it don't matter except in the most important way
C G A
As if to say, hey hey-aa-ay
D Dsus2 D F#m
Fly away, sweet bird of prey

Fly, fly away

I won't stand in your way
D Dsus4 D A
Sweet bird, if you knew the words
C G A A7 Bm G D C G Em A
I know that you'd say, fly, fly away

That you slowly fade and yet still remain

As if to say, everything matters in such an invisible way
C Em A G D C G D x2
As if to say, it's okay, fly away...
