G                                                   C 
I've worn down these wheels so much that they don't even spin. 
     G                                                         C  
I've picked the lock to your heart as if I were tryin to break in 
    D                       Bm                          C 
You poor little thing, that ball and that chain must be ten thousand pounds 
                            D 
Must be draggin you down by now 
 
Chorus 1: 
   C                                               G 
So fly away, fly away like you've always wanted to do  
C                                         G 
Don't be afraid baby I'll make it easy on you 
Em                           Asus4      A      
I'll be the strong one cause I love you still  
       D             D/C           D/B    D/A 
If you can't say goodbye then baby I will  
  G                       D                 G 
I hope someday you'll get over your fear of flying  
 
We've been running from the truth so long that we can't catch our breath  
Oh and now heartache and a bottle of whiskey is all we've got left  
You poor little thing, locked up in your cage 
And I'm not the one stepping on your wings 
 
Chorus 2: 
   Em                     C                    G  
So fly away fly away like you always wanted to do  
Em                   C                    G 
Don't be afraid baby I'll make it easy on you  
Em                   Asus4        A 
Don't say a word and don't make a sound 
     D          D/C       D/B          D/A 
Just get up and take your feet off the ground 
  G                      D                 G 
I hope someday you'll get over your fear of flying
