[Verse 1]
C/G
This morning as i watched a bird
Am
Just spread its wings and fly
C/G
It was then a thought came over me
G7 C/G
And i wondered why can't i ?
G7 C/G
Oh why,oh why can't i ?
[Verse 2]
F
If i could only fly,you see
Dm
A lot of problems would be gone
F
When you think of just how much
C7 F
I'd save on shoes alone
C7 F
If i could only fly
[Verse 3]
F
I would never tear my clothes
Dm
Climbing in and out of trees
F
If i could only fly,i'd never crawl
C7 F
Or wear holes in my knees
C7 F
If i could only fly
[Verse 4]
C/G
How i'd love to spread my wings
Am
And streak across the sky
C/G
I'd be off to see the world
G7 C/G
If i could only fly
G7 C/G
But i'd always come right back
