Verses:
D2 C#m11
1. Now and then behind the rows
2. Now and then when they're at rest
3. But then again behind the rows
Bm11 C#m11
1. Of pearly teeth and fashion clothes
2. Flocked in sleep in cuckoo's nests
3. She feels the piercing looks of those
D2 C#m11
1. She sees them in the mirror-tiles
2. Feeling safe no need to hide
3. Who watch her every move in case
Bm11 D/E
1. Trying on their latest smiles
2. She opens doors and windows wide
3. She happens to forget her place
Amaj7 Dmaj7
1. Light and warmth from spotlight beams
2. And poised upon her painted claws
3. Who sum her up deny her flight
Gmaj7 Gmaj6 F#7suF#7
1. Convincing them their nightmare is a dream
2. She stretches out her gaudy wings and soars
3. Aim their words and shoot her down on sight
Chorus:
BmajBmaj74
Far away
Em9 A7#5G
Borne by the wind
DmaDmaj7
She roams the sky
F13 G13 G7#5 Cmaj7
No one to say too low too high
Ebmaj7 F13
Or count the lonely miles
F7#5 BbmajBmaj7
that she has flown
Ebmaj7
This world is hers alone
