Intro: B   Gb   Abm   E

Verse 1:
B            Gb              Abm           E
 We will fly   Way up high     Where the cold wind blows
B            Gb              Abm           E
 Or in the sun  Laughing having fun  With the people that she knows
B            Gb              Abm           E
 And if the situation  Should keep us separated  You know the world won't fall apart
B                  Gb
 And you will free the beautiful bird
Abm
That's caught inside your heart

Pre-chorus 1:
E          Gb
 Can't you hear her?
E     Gb
 Oh she cries so loud
E          Gb
 Casts her wild note
E      Gb          B -
 Over water and cloud

Chorus:
E     -     B             Dbm            A
That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'
E          B             Dbm     A
 We'll go riding on the horses, yeah yeah
E          B             Dbm     A
 Way up in the sky, little darlin'
E          B             Dbm     A
 And if you fall I'll pick you up, pick you up

Instrumental: B   Gb   Abm   E

Verse 2:
B               Gb             Abm          E
 You will grow   And until you go  I'll be right there by your side
B               Gb             Abm          E
 And even then   Whisper the wind  And she will carry up your ride
B               Gb             Abm          E
 I hear all the people of the world In one bird's lonely cry
B               Gb             Abm          E
See them trying every way they know how To make their spirit - fly

Pre-chorus:
E          Gb
 Can't you see him?
E            Gb
 He's down on the ground
E           Gb
 He has a broken wing
E         Gb          B
 Looking all around

Chorus (x4):
E     -     B             Dbm            A
That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'
E          B             Dbm     A
 We'll go riding on the horses, yeah yeah
E          B             Dbm     A
 Way up in the sky, little darlin'
E          B             Dbm     A
 And if you fall I'll pick you up, pick you up
