C                     A/C#
Lay down your broken head
                D   C        F
I can see you cry away your life
C                       A/C#
Fall like you fell from grace
                   D
Soft, but sweetly say
            C       F
This is my dying day

                 C
And if you don't mind
G
I would like to

Chorus:
C  C7         Am
Fly, fly far away
       D7
That's all I wanna do is
C  C7           Am
Fly, fly far my way
       D7
That's all I'm gonna do
       C G   C
On my dying day

Live
Like you never have
Take in all you can
Before the wind decides
To lead like a Mother
Please
Don't let go of my hand
On my dying day

And if you don't mind
I would like to

Chorus:
Fly
Fly far away
That's all I wanna do is
Fly
Fly in my own way
Where nobody can touch me
Nobody can
I'm flying
Flying my own way
That's all I want to do
On my dying day

    D7
I'm shaken by the cold
        G
Of the roses that we grow
   E7/G#
To give our heads
                  Am
A happy state of mind
    F
And all I need to know
    E7/G#
Is where I can go
       Am
If you lock me out
                      G/B
And leave me here to die

Chorus:
I will fly
Fly far away
That's all I wanna do is
Fly on
Fly in my own way
Where nobody can touch me
Nobody can

I'm flying
So far away
That's all I want to do
On my dying day
On my dying day
On my dying day
