The Wings That Fly Us Home Chords by John Denver

_ _ _ _ _ _ _
There are many ways of being in the [A] circle _ we call [E] life. _
A wise man seeks an answer, _ [F#m] burns his candle _ through the [B] night. _
Is [E] a jewel just a pebble that _ found a way [A] to shine?
Is a hero's blood more [E] righteous than [F#m] a _ hobo's [B] sip of wine? _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ [E] Did I speak to you one morning on [A] some distant world away?
[E] _ _ _ Did you save me from an arrow?
_ [F#m] Did you lay me [B] in a grave?
_ _ [E] Were we brothers on a journey?
_ Did you teach me [A] how to run?
_ Were we broken by the [E] waters?
[F#m] Did I lie to you [B] in the sun? _ _ _ _
_ [A] I dreamed you [C#m] were a prophet _ [E] in the meadow. _ _ _ _
_ [A] I dreamed I [C#m] was a mountain _ [E] in the wind. _ _ _ _
_ [A] I dreamed you'd [C#m] melt and touch me [E] with a flower. _ _ _ _
_ [A] I awoke with this [F#m] flower in [B] my hand. _ _ _
_ _ [E] I know that love has seen [A] all the infinite _ [E] in one.
_ _ In the brotherhood of creatures, _ [F#m] who the father, [B] who the son.
_ _ [E] The vision _ of your goodness will sustain me through [A] the cold.
Take my hand now to [E] remember _ when [F#m] you find yourself _ [B]
alone.
_ You're never alone [E] and the spirit fills the darkness _ of the heaven.
_ _ _ _ _ [A] It fills the endless yearning of the [E]
soul.
_ _ _ _ _ [A] It lives within a star [G#m] too [E] far to dream of.
_ _ _ _ [A] It lives within each [C#m] part [G#m] and [B] ends the whole.
_ _ _ _ It's [A] the fire [G#m] and [F#m] the wind [B] that fly us [E] _
home.
[A] _ _ Fly [E] us home.
_ _ [A] _ Fly us home.
