D#        A#
Flock of birds
Gm         F  Dm
Hovering above
D#               A#
Just a flock of birds
Gm                       F  Dm
That's how you think of love

Chorus:
Dm    D# Dm
And I always
                Gm
Look up to the sky
                 F
Pray before the dawn
  Dm          D#  Dm
Cause they fly always
                  Gm
Sometimes they arrive
                    F
Sometimes they are gone
      Dm D#
They fly on

A flock of birds
Hovering above
Into smoke I'm turned and rise
Following 'em up

Chorus:
Still, I always look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
'Cause they fly away
One minute they arrive
Next you know, they're gone
They fly on
Fly on
Oh ohhhh

So fly on, ride through
Maybe one day I'll fly next to you
Fly on, ride through
Maybe one day I can fly with you
Fly on
Fly on
Fly on

Don't ever let go
Don't ever let go
Don't ever let go
Don't ever let go
