Fly Away
Words & Music by John Denver
from Windsong (1975)
G
All of her days have gone soft and cloudy
D7sus4
All of her dreams have gone dry
G
All of her nights have gone sad and shady
She's getting ready to fly
Am D7 Am D7 G D7sus4
Fly away, fly away, fly away.
G
Life in the city can make you crazy
D7sus4
For sounds of the sand and the sea
G
Life in a high-rise can make you hungry
D7sus4
For things that you can't even see
Am D7 Am D7 G
Fly away, fly away, fly away.
Am Bm CaddD
In this whole world there's nobody as lonely as she
Am D7
There's nowhere to go and there's nowhere
G
That she'd rather be.
G
She's looking for lovers and children playing
D7sus4
She's looking for signs of the spring
G
She listens for laughter and sounds of dancing
D7sus4
She listens for any old things
Am D7 Am D7 G D G D G GaddA
Fly away, fly away, fly away.
