Fly Eagle Fly

Drop D Tuning


D              G                    D
I can't imagine how the world would be
G                                           D 
Not to see the gray squirrel climbing in an oak tree
G                                                      D
To walk through a corn field and not see the wild duck flyin
A                               G                                D
I believe before the world ever got that bad, I'd be on my knees cryin


Chorus:
          D       G     D
Won't you fly, oh eagle fly
           C           G           D
You better run, little cottontail, run
D                                   C       G       D 
I hope you both live long enough to see the setting sun


The lion ain't got no jungle
Old black bear got no cave
And that poor old alligator
Just bout seen his better days

Chorus

Bridge:
G
On a cold winter morning I could look up in the sky
G                              D
And I could see the wild geese fly
         C               G            
And on a warm spring day I could look up in the air
    G                      D
And I could see the yellow butterfly
    G
How long has it been since you heard the tiny flutter
G                       D   
Of the little wing of a hummingbird
    C                           G 
And I once saw the picture of a buffalo
                  D
A thousand in the herd

Chorus

Fly, mister eagle, fly
You better run little cottontail, run
