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

Fly away, sweet bird of prey
Bm
Fly, fly away
G
Nothing can stand in your way
DDDus4 A
Sweet bird, if you knew the words
CGA
I know that you'd say, fly, fly away
DCG
It makes sense that it should hurt in this way
EmG
That my heart should break, and my hands should shake
DFCGD
As if to say, sure it don't matter except in the most important way
CGA
As if to say, hey hey-aa-ay
DDsus2DA
Fly away, sweet bird of prey
Bm
Fly, fly away
G
I won't stand in your way
DDDus4 A
Sweet bird, if you knew the words
CGAA7BmAm
I know that you'd say, fly, fly away
DCG
It makes sense that it should feel this way
EmG
That you slowly fade and yet still remain
DFCGD
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...
