D       D/C#	   G/B   A       D        D/C#        G/B  A  D
On the road of experience, I'm trying to find my own way.
          D/C#        G/B       A      D   D/C#   G/B   D
Sometimes I wish that I could fly away
         D/C#	         G/B A  D         D/C#        G/B  A  D
When I think that I'm moving,  suddently things stand still
       D/C#             G/B    A       D   D/C#  G/B
I'm afraid 'cause I think they always will

         A            G   Em
And I'm looking for space
        A       A(sus4)  D  D/C#   G/B 
And to find out who   I am
         A           G   F#m Em7    A(sus4)  A
And I'm looking to know and  understand
         G      F#m/A   D
It's a sweet, sweet    dream
 G            A        D
Sometimes I'm almost there 
 G            A         D   Bm
Sometimes I fly like an eagle
     G             Em         A7(sus4)   A7   D
And sometimes I'm deep in despair

      D/C#	 G/B     A  D               D/C#    G/B  A  D
All alone in the universe, sometimes that's how it seems
       D/C#        G/B      A        D   D/C#   G/B   D
I get lost in the sadness and the screams
        D/C#	    G/B  A  D         D/C#        G/B  A  D
Then I look in the center, suddently everything's clear
          D/C#        G/B     A        D   D/C#   G/B   
I find myself in the sunshine and my dreams

         A            G   Em
And I'm looking for space
        A       A(sus4)  D  D/C#   G/B 
And to find out who   I am
         A           G   F#m Em7    A(sus4)  A
And I'm looking to know and  understand
         G      F#m/A   D
It's a sweet, sweet    dream
 G            A        D
Sometimes I'm almost there 
 G            A         D   Bm
Sometimes I fly like an eagle
     G             Em         A7(sus4)   A7   D
And sometimes I'm deep in despair

        D/C#	   G/B   A  D           D/C#  G/B  A  D
On the road of experience, join in the living day
              D/C#          G/B            A         D   D/C#   G/B  
if there's an answer, it's just that it's just that way

             A            G   Em
When you're looking for space
        A       A(sus4)  D  D/C#   G/B 
And to find out who you are

Sometimes I'm almost there 
 G            A         D   Bm
Sometimes I fly like an eagle
     G             Em         A7(sus4)   A7 
But sometimes I'm deep in despair

like an eagle
