Lyrics

Ain’t no talk in’ (D)to this man.

Ain’t no pret ty oth er side.

Ain’t no way to un der stand the

stu pid words of pride.

It would (A)take an ac ro bat,

but, I al read y tried all that.

(A)So, I’m gon na (D)let him fly.

(A)Gon na let him (D)fly.

Things can move at such a pace.

The sec ond hand just waved good bye.

You know the light has left his face,

but, you can’t re call just where or why.

So, there was (A)real ly noth in’ to it.

I just went (Gmaj9)and cut right through it.

Said I’m, I’m gon na (D)let him fly.

There’s no (G)mer cy in a live wire.

No rest at (Bm)all in free dom.

Of the choic es we are giv en,

there’s no choice at all.

The (G)proof is in the fire

you touch (D)be fore it moves a (Bm7)way,

yeah, yeah.

But, you must al ways know how long to stay and when to go.

And there ain’t no talk in’ (D)to this man.

He’s been try’n (D)to tell me so.

It took a while (Gmaj9)to un der stand

the beau ty of just let ting go.

’Cause it would take an ac ro bat.

I al read y tried all that.

I’m gon na (D)let him fly.

(Gsus2)I’m gon na (A)let him (D)fly,

(Gmaj9)fly,

(A)oh.

(Gsus2)I’m gon na (A)let him (D)fly,

(Gmaj9)fly,

(A)oh.

(G)I’m gon na let him (D)fly.

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "Let Him Fly" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature D, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
Yes — slow the tempo from 115 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
Why can I click a note in the score?
Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
