Wings

E       A                          E
Seen it written and I've heard it told
        A                   E
That a man does things for gold
             A                     E
Drives him crazy and it makes him old
             B
Before his time
              C#m                E
Sittin' 'round waitin' for the rainbow's end
         A                E
Wastin' time and loosin' friends
       G#m             C#m  A          B
Never knowin' that it ends before his eyes
      A      E
But those of us who seek the truth
         B               E
Will be there when she rides

[Chorus]
                E
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings
B                      E
Pickin' us up by the waves
             A                             E
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'
       A        E         B       A    E
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings
            A          B            E
Once met a man and his words were wise
         A              E
And he looked me in the eyes
          G#m              C#m
He said brother don't you compromise
          B
What you feel

[Verse]
             C#m          E
All things figure in a bigger plan
          A      E
And it's up to veryman
        G#m             C#m      A     B
Just to do the best to reach his own ideals
     A              E
And build a world around himself
     B                E
And live it like he feels

[Chorus]
                E
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings
B                      E
Pickin' us up by the waves
             A                             E
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'
       A        E         B       A    E
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings
F#m
Pickin' us up by the waves
             B                       F#m
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'
       B        F#m         C#m  B     F#m
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings
C#m                    F#m
Pickin' us up by the waves
             B                       F#m
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'
       B        F#m        C#m   B
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings
