This [D] is Russell Morris solo, probably, [C] well the last time for a while,
as I've seen without his band and we'll have him [B] and his band [Dm] on the show real soon.
[C] This is Russell Morris solo, one of the finest [F] Australian compositions I think for a [G] long long time.
It's a thing, [N] it's a flashback actually, it's a thing [Bb] called On the Wings of an [Am] Eagle.
Well [G]
[F]
[G]
[Am] I'm looking out on an [G] overcast sky in the morning, [Am] I can't hear the warning as [G] it calls [D] to me.
[Am] As the birds migrate and the wind is [G] raised I'll see the eagle soar,
[Am]
although I'm a born in [G] nature's game [D] of liking.
[Em] [D] [G]
[Am] While
[D] on
[G] the wings of an eagle I find [Am] myself lifted through the skies,
[C] lifted up [D] above the world [G] to see.
On the wings of an eagle I find [Am] myself lifted through the skies,
[C] lifted up [D] above the world to [G] see.
Can you see [Am] me?
Can you see [D] me?
[A] As the [Am] days roll on and the nights get long, [G] the change in all the seasons,
[Am] and the falling autumn leaves, they bring [G] me down, they bring [Am] me down, they bring [D] me
