PAPER WINGS (Gillian Welch / David Rawlings)

CAPO 1
G                                   D
Paper wings, all torn and bent
                                                                  G
But you made me feel like they were heaven sent
         G                        D
Paper wings, not real at all
                                                         G
But they took me high enough to really fall

                 C                         G
Your paper kisses, faded too soon
                A                D
Just like a paper rose, beneath a paper moon

          G                C
Paper wings, paper wings
     D                                                         G
Oh how could I expect to fly with only paper wings


Angels singing, didn't you hear
If only I'd listened close, when they whispered in my ear
Paper wings, paper wings
Oh how could I expect to fly with only paper wings

I tried to fly but found that I had only paper wings
