I play this on piano, and I find it best to just play each chord over and over
again very quickly until the next chord kicks in. Try listening to the song to get
the best rhythm.
G D Am Em
Tonight we fly
C G
Over the houses
D B
The streets and the trees
Em G C
Over the dogs down below
Em Am
They'll bark at our shadows
C D
As we float by on the breeze
G D Am Em
Tonight we fly
C G
Over the chimney tops
D B
Skylights and slates -
Em G C
Looking into all your lives
Em Am
And wondering why
C D
Happiness is so hard to find
G D Am Em
Over the doctor, over the soldier
C G D B
Over the farmer, over the poacher
Em G C Em
Over the preacher, over the gambler
Am C G D
Over the teacher, over the rambler
Am Em C G
Over the lawyer, over the dancer
D B Em G C Em
Over the voyeur, over the builder and the destroyer,
Am C D
Over the hills and far away
G D Am Em
Tonight we fly
C G
Over the mountains
D B
The beach and the sea
Em G C
Over the friends that we've known
Em Am
And those that we now know
C D
And those who we've yet to meet
G D Am Em
And when we die
C
Oh, will we be
G D
That disappointed
B
Or sad
Em G C
If heaven doesn't exist
Em Am
What will we have missed
C D G
This life is the best we've ever had
