like a (E)hom ing (A)bird I (F#m)fly,

as a (G)bird on (C)wings.

What ev er hap pened to

the life that we once knew?

Can we real ly live with (A)out each (A)oth er?

Where did we lose the touch

Al ways made me feel

(E)so free.

(A)Free

It’s the (E)next best (A)thing to (F#m)be

free (G)as a (A)bird,

free (G)as a (A)bird,

free (G)as a (A)bird.
