[Bb] [Fm] Anyway, [Ab] this next [Em] song is [Ab] probably one of the songs that I think Townes wrote that said it [Eb] all.
It's called To Live Is To Fly.
[Ab]
[Eb]
[Bb] [Ab]
[Eb] [Ab]
I won't [Eb] say I love you babe
[B] [Ab] I won't say [Eb] I need you babe
But I'm gonna [Bb]
get you [Ab] babe
And I will not do [Eb] you wrong
[B] [Ab]
Living's mostly [Eb] wasting time
[B] [Ab] And I [Eb] waste my share of mine
But it never [Bb] feels too [Ab] good
So let's not [Eb] take too long
[B] [Ab] I'm so [Eb] restless
[Abm] And [Ab] you're a [Bb] gentle man
[Eb] We've got the [Bb] sky to talk about
[Ab] And I'll [Eb] lie upon
[Abm] [Ab] Days [Eb] of now that come [Abm] [Ab] like rain
[Eb]
Again most [Bb]
remember [Ab] someone
Don't turn [Eb] on the way
[Abm] [Ab] Everything [Eb] is not [Abm] enough
[Ab] Nothing [Eb] is too much to bear
Where you've [Bb] been is good
And God [Ab] keeps [Eb] forgetting there
[Abm] [Ab] To [Eb] live's to fly
[Abm] [Ab] [Bb] Low and high
[Eb] So shake the dust [Bb] off of your wings
[Ab] And the sleep out [Eb] of your eyes
[Abm] [Ab] It's goodbye [Eb] to all my [Ab] friends
It's [Eb] time to go again
Think of [Bb] all the tree [Ab] and all the picking [Eb] down
[Ab] I'll [Eb] miss the system [Ab] here
The bottom's [Eb] low and the travel's clear
But it don't take [Bb] too thin
Too [Ab] much on the fins you [Eb] leave behind
[Abm] [Ab] I won't [Eb] be alone
[Abm] [Ab] I won't [Bb] be
[Eb] [Bb]
a d-
[Ab] [Eb]
[Abm] [Ab] We all [Eb]
got holes to fill
[Gb] [Ab] And them [Eb] holes are all that's real
Some fall [Bb] on you like a storm
[Ab] Sometimes you [Eb] dig your own [Ab] good [Eb] choice
[Abm] [Ab] [Eb]
[Bb]
[Ab] [Bb] [Eb]
[B] [Ab] You [Eb] live's to fly
[Ab] [Bb] Low and high

So shake the dust [Bb] off of your wings
[Ab] And the sleep out [Eb] of your eyes
[Abm] [Ab] To [Eb] live's to fly
[Abm] [Ab]
Low [Bb] and high
[Eb] So shake the dust off of your wings
Dust [Bb] off of your wings
[Ab] And the sleep out of [Eb] your

eyes
We float like lungs
