Lyrics

One (A7)flight

(B7)down

there’s a song

on

low,

(A7)and your mind

just (B7#5)picked up on the sound.

Now you know

that (C#dim)you’re

wrong,

be cause it (Em7)drifts

like

smoke

(A7)and it’s been there (B7#5)play ing all a long.

Now you know.

(A13sus)Now you know.

The reeds and (Bm7)brass have been weav ing,

lead ing in to a sin

gle note.

In

this place

where your arms

un

fold,

here at last

you (D#dim7)see your an cient face.

Now you know.

(A7sus)Now (A7)you know.

The ca dence rolls in,

bro ken,

plays it o ver and

then goes.

One

flight down

there’s a song

on

low,

and it’s been there (D#dim7)play in’ all a long.

Now you know.

(A7)Now you know.
