VERSE 1

In a while I'll find the time to make the sunshine mine

Wheeling, soaring, gliding by
A 2x

On a hill there lived a man with many shining things
A G A G?
Shiny pool, shiny car and shiny diamond rings
A G A G?
Wining, dining, shining king
BRIDGE

?And the eagle flies in clear blue skies
C Am Am9 Am?
Breathing in the clear blue air

And fifty more come rolling off

A 3x

VERSE 4
A G A G?
Here we go, hold your nose and see if something blows
A G A G?
Close your eyes, count to ten and see the sunrise rise
A G A A?
Climbing, crying through the sky
BRIDGE

By the ornamental lake a diamond lies
C Am Am9 Am?
Upon the finger of the king?

On high, the eagle spies the glitter of a gun
G A?
Then wheeling in a climbing turn he flies into the sun
