[F] [C]
I was born on a rock [F] where the stars didn't shine, now I soar like a leaf on the wind.
The clouds were polluted, the sea filled with brine, now I soar [F] like a leaf [C] on the wind.
[Dm] I swore to [G] myself [C] that above it I'd rise, [Dm] sail over the [C] mountains and [G] into the skies,
[C] to see the stars brighter [F] than man [C] can devise, I'd soar like a [C] leaf on the wind.
[F] [C] When government [Am] squirreled I was called to [C] the fight, to [F] soar like a [C] leaf on the wind.
I offered my [F] wings to the side [C] I thought right, to soar [F] like a leaf [C] on the wind.
[Dm] Then after two [C] sorties my boat ran aground, [Dm] my captors with [C] laurels of victory [G] were crowned,
[C] when the killing was over [Dm] my freedom [C] I found, to soar like a leaf on the wind.
[F] [C]
I wandered the whole [F] verse, I went where I'd please, I'd [Am] drift like a leaf on [C] the wind.
I spent a whole month trying to juggle geese, I'd [Am] drift like a leaf [C] on the wind.
[Dm] Wherever I [C] went there was one thing I'd [Dm] lack, the stars they were calling [C] for [G] me to come back,
[C] farewell to the land [F] and [C] yehow to the black, once more I'm a leaf on the wind.
The Wrench-Hawk always begged me [F] to knock a [C] heave rave, to [Am] soar like a leaf [C] on the wind.
Serenity's crew had [F] the one thing [C] I craved, as I [Am] soared like a leaf [C] on the wind.
[Dm] The moons and the planets [C] each have their own [Dm] charms, but the heavens I sought [C] were in [G] Zoe's strong arms,
[C] oh why a [F] goddess to keep [C] me from harm, as I soar [F] like a leaf [C] on the [F] wind.
[C]
Now sometimes I [Am] carry a gun [C] when I roam, though I [E] soar like a [C] leaf on the wind.
With puppets and [F] dinosaurs I'm much [C] more at home, as I soar [Am] like a leaf [C] on the wind.
[Dm] Now laughter was [C] always my ally in [Dm] life, and humour has [C] always [G] deflected my [C] strife,
it got me through [F] torture, it won [C] me my wife, and I soar [Am] like a leaf [C] on the [F] wind.
[C] It ain't easy to [E] pilot a ship [C] that can't turn, but I'll [Am] soar like a [C] leaf on the wind.
Can't pull crazy [E] Ivans, can't go [C] for hot burn, but I'll soar [Am] like a leaf [C] on the wind.
[Dm] Now once you've made sure [C] that that signal gets through, [Dm] there's one final thing [C] that I want you [G] to do,
[C] put me where I'll see stars [F] so that I [C] can see you, and I'll [Am] soar like a leaf [C] on the wind.
[F] [C]
Put me where I'll see stars [F] so that I [C] can see you, and I'll soar [F] like a leaf [C] on the wind.
Soar [F] like a leaf [C] on the wind.
Soar [F] like a leaf [C] on the wind.
Soar [F] like a leaf [C] on the wind.
Soar [F] like a leaf on [Am]
the wind.
