Verse 1:
D5 [ch]Dmaj7/F#[/ch] [ch]Dadd2[/ch]
Holding the fire, standing in the rain
D5 [ch]Dmaj7/F#[/ch] [ch]Dadd2[/ch]
Eyes of desire, close to the flame
[ch]Em11[/ch] D5
nothing can be done, to change their minds
Verse 2:
D5 [ch]Dmaj7/F#[/ch] [ch]Dadd2[/ch]
Out in the dark, far beyond the light.
D5 [ch]Dmaj7/F#[/ch] [ch]Dadd2[/ch]
Home is with the stars, out of sight.
[ch]Em11[/ch] D5
Nothing can be done, to make them stay.
Chorus 1:
[ch]Em11[/ch] [ch]Dmaj7/F#[/ch] Bm7
Here and then they're gone
Aadd4 [ch]Dadd2[/ch] Bm7
How long until they go
Aadd4 [ch]Dadd2[/ch] Bm7
How long until they know
Aadd4 [ch]Dadd2[/ch] D5
All they need to fly
[D5]Rockets [Aadd4]to the [Dadd2]silver [Bm7]sky
Verse 3:
D5 [ch]Dmaj7/F#[/ch] [ch]Dadd2[/ch]
If I had the chance to do it all again
D5 [ch]Dmaj7/F#[/ch] [ch]Dadd2[/ch]
I'd follow every stream, fearless like them
[ch]Em11[/ch] D5
Let everything be done, in it's own time
Chorus 2:
[ch]Em11[/ch] [ch]Dmaj7/F#[/ch] Bm7
Don't worry if it's wrong
Aadd4 [ch]Dadd2[/ch] Bm7
How long until I go
Aadd4 [ch]Dadd2[/ch] Bm7
How long until I know
Aadd4 [ch]Dadd2[/ch] D5
All I need to fly
