I’ve swal lowed my pride

for you; but (G)you still make me feel like a thief.

You got me (Asus)steal in’ your love

a way ’cause (G)you nev er (D)give

it;

e (Asus)peel in’ the years

a way and and the (G)we can’t re (D)live

it.

(G)I make you (D)laugh,

and (G)you make me (D)cry.

I be lieve it’s time for me to fly.

(D)You said we’d work

it out.

You (A)said that you had

no doubt that (G)deep down we were real ly in love.

But I’m tired of hold

ing you, on to a feel ing I know

is gone.

I (G)do be lieve that I’ve had e nough.

I’ve had e (Asus)nough of the false ness of a (G)worn out re (D)la tion;

(G)I make you (D)laugh,

and (G)you make me (D)cry.

I be lieve it’s time for me to fly.

Time for me to fly.

I’ve got to set my self (D)free.

Time for me to fly.

That’s just how it’s (G)got to

(D)be.

I know it hurts to say good (Asus)bye,

but it’s time for me to fly.

It’s time for me to fly.
