G * D
Won't say I love you babe
G * D
Won't say I need you babe
D A
But I'm going to get you babe
G D
and I will not do you wrong
G * D
Living's mostly wasting time
G * D
and I waste my share of mine
D A
but it never feels too good
G D
so let's not take too long
Chorus
G D G A
You're soft as glass and I'm a gentle man
D A
we got the sky to talk about
G D
and the world to lie upon
G * D
Days up and down they come
G * D
like rain on a conga drum
D A
forget most, remember some
G D
but don't turn none away.
G * D
Everything is not enough
G * D
nothing is too much to bear
D A
where you been is good and gone
G D
all you keep's the getting there.
Chorus
G D G A
To live is to fly low and high
D A
so shake the dust off of your wings
G D
and the sleep out of your eyes.
G * D
It's goodbye to all my friends
G * D
It's time to go again
D A
Think of all the poetry
G D
and the pickin' down the line.
G * D
I'll miss the system here
G * D
the bottom's low and the treble's clear
D A
but it don't pay to think too much
G D
on the things you leave behind.
Chorus
G D G A
I may be gone but I won't be long
D A
I'll be bringing back the melody
G D
and the rhythm that I find.
G * D
We all got holes to fill
G * D
and them holes are all that's real
D A
some fall on you like a storm
G D
sometimes you dig your own
G * D
But choice is yours to make
G * D
time is yours to take
D A
some dive into the sea
G D
some toil upon the stone.
Chorus
G D G A
To live is to fly low and high
D A
so shake the dust off of your wings
G D
and the sleep out of your eyes.
