The Wings Of Destiny

[Verse]

         Em
Take the children
                     C
March them off to war
     Em
Only numbered
                             C
To count down the final score
       Em
Lay in waiting
                  C
For the end to come
          Em
And their only chance
                      C B
Is loaded in their gun


[Chorus]

                      Em                           Db B
They're riding on the wings (the wings), the wings of destiny
              Em                      Db     Am
Riding on the wings (the wings), from so far below
              Em                           Db B
Riding on the wings (the wings), the wings of destiny
             Em                       Db          Am   B
Riding on the wings (the wings), that carry their souls


[Verse 2]

Em
In battle daybreak
             C
The field is grey and bare
Em
They feel the presence
                C           B
Of death that's in the air


[Chorus 2]

                      Em                           Db B
They're riding on the wings (the wings), the wings of destiny
              Em                      Db     Am
Riding on the wings (the wings), from so far below
              Em                           Db B
Riding on the wings (the wings), the wings of destiny
             Em                       Db          Am   Bm
Riding on the wings (the wings), that carry their souls

[Verse 2]

Em
Take the children
                       C
March them off to war
     Em
Only numbered
                           C
To count down the final score
       Em
In the trenches
                 C
A battle to begin
            Em
And they're waiting
                      C B
To ride the wings again


[Chorus 3]

                      Em                           Db B
They're riding on the wings (the wings), the wings of destiny
              Em                      Db     Am
Riding on the wings (the wings), from so far below
              Em                           Db B
Riding on the wings (the wings), the wings of destiny
             Em                       Db          Am
Riding on the wings (the wings), that carry their souls

              Em D C
Riding on the wings
              Em D Am
Riding on the wings
              Em D C
Riding on the wings
       Em   D Am Em
Oh, of destiny
