FOR UG STAFF: Gary's music can be found here: http://www.myspace.com/garydgarrett
(and he can also be booked that way).
#------------------------------PLEASE NOTE-----------------------------#
The placement of these chords is where I hear the changes while singing
& playing the song. Use your ear to adjust where the changes should be,
if necessary.
Notes:
(1) For the D# passing chord, just slide the D shape up a fret and then
go to Em.
(2) C-C#-D-D#: The C# and D# are passing chords, just slide the C up one
fret, go to a regular D, slide it up a fret, then go to Em.
(3) F - F# - G- G#- A is just sliding the whole F chord shape up the neck
one fret at a time. I’m a thumb-wrapper: I fret the low E string with my
thumb to get the bass note.
(4) For the Eb, just slide the C chord up three frets and don’t play any
open E strings. The open G string is cool -- it fits in the Eb chord.
(5) The Eb7 is just C7, up three frets. Slide it down a fret and let it
ring for the D7.

Flying Dream
Verse 1:
G B7
Milk and honey on the stove
Em C
A big band on the radio

Open up the curtains to the sky.

Fill my cup and hit the light
Em C
And stare out at the starry night

I wonder if I’ll ever learn to fly.

It feels so easy, feels so right

To rise above the city lights

I hope I have my flying dream tonight
D D# Em C F F# G (3)
I hope I have my flying dream tonight.
Bridge:
G# A C
And I know I’m doing something right
G Em
I’m gliding down the street
A C G
I feel my body rise above the ground

Dodging all the power lines

And mountains that I meet
A C Eb (4)
I’m free until the morning comes around...
Eb7 D7 (5)
Coming down...

Bacon cooking on the stove

The Beatles on the radio

The sky is blue, the clouds are drifting by

I wonder how I got to be

A prisoner of gravity

I know there’s more to me than meets the eye
G B7
I know that I could fly right now

If I could just remember how
G D D# Em C C#
I know I’ll make it through the day all right

If I can have my flying dream tonight.

‘Cause it feels so easy, feels so right

To rise above the city lights

I hope I have my flying dream tonight

I hope I have my flying dream tonight.
A C G
Ooh, Flying dream...
