(C)I can’t stand to fly.

(Am)I’m not that na ive.

(C)I’m just out to find

I’m more than a bird.

I’m more than a plane.

I’m more than some pret ty face be side (F)a train.

And it’s not eas y

I (C)wish that I could cry.

(Am)Fall up on my knees.

(C)Find a way to lie

’bout a (Am)home I’ll nev er see.

It may sound ab surd,

but don’t be na ive.

I’m more E ven he roes have the right (F)a train.

And it’s not eas y

but won’t you con cede

And it’s not eas y

Well, it’s all right,

I’m not cra zy

or an y (G)thing.

(C)I can’t stand to fly.

(Am)I’m not that na ive.

(C)Men weren’t meant to ride

with clouds be tween their knees.

I’m on ly a man

(F)ooh, ooh, ooh.

It’s not eas y
