A
If you want to be a bird
B            E
Why don't you try a little flying
B
There's no denying
E
It gets you high

A
Why be shackled to your feet
B                  E
When you've got wings, you haven't used yet
B
Don't wait for heaven
E
Get out and fly

B
Just glide there, through the clear air
A
Making figure eights, through the pearly gates
E                     B
Where the soul and the universe meet

If you want to be a bird
It won't take much, to get you up there
But when you come down
Land on your feet

 A B | E | B | E
 A B | E | B | E

Just glide there, through the clear air
Making figure eights, through the pearly gates
Where the soul and the universe meet

If you want to be a bird
It won't take much, to get you up there
But when you come down
Land on your feet
