Skyline Pigeon
verse 1
Turn the l[D]oose from your h[A/C#]ands
Let me[G] fl[A]y to di[A7]stant la[D]nds
Over green fi[E/G#]elds, trees and m[G]ountains
[D/A]Flowers[A] and for[A7]est foun[D]tains
[G]Home along[D/A] the lanes [A7]of the s[D]kyway
verse 2
For this d[D]ark and lonely [A/C#]room
Projects a [G]shado[A]w ca[A7]st in gl[D]oom
And my eyes are [E/G#]mirrors
Of the [G]world outside
Thinking [D/A]of the way
[A]That the [A7]wind can turn h[D]e tide
And these s[G]hadows turn
[D/A] [A7] [D]
Chorus
For just this [G]Skyline Pigeon
[D/A]Dreaming of the [A7]open
[D]Waiting for the day
He can s[G]pread his wings
And [D/A]fly aw[A7]ay ag[D]ain[F#7/C#]
Fly aw[Bm]ay [C#7]Skyline pigeon [F#m]fly
Towards the d[G]reams you left so [D/A]very [A7]far be[D]hind
(repeat from fly away)
Verse 3
(Same chords as verses 1 & 2)
Just let me wake up in the morning
to the smell of new mown hay
to laugh and cry, to live and die
I the brightness of my day
I want to hear the pealing bells
Of distant churches sing
But most of all please free me
and open out this cage towards the sun
(Repeat chorus)
