See the gambler make a stand
C Bm Em G
Holds a lifetime in his hand
C G Am Em
Win the game or lose control
C C/B Am C
But the world goes on forever
[Verse 2]
C D Em Bm
Life's a circle, I recall
C Bm Em G
Shadows played upon the wall
C G Am Em
You pay the piper to call the tune
C C/B Am C
And the song goes on forever
[Chorus 1]
G D Em Bm
And when all the words have gone
C B Em G
There's the thought to carry on
C D G Em
Just like a bird that sings
G C G
Leave it all behind and spread your wings
G C G
You can leave it all behind - spread your wings
[Bridge 1]
G C G
Lay me down
C D Em Bm
Saw the road move on before me
C B Em D C G
Times when I was tired and lost my way
G D Em C Em Bm
Looking at life and strangely for the first time
D C
Thinking that I could stay here
C C/B Am C
But the world moves on forever
[Chorus 2]
G D Em Bm
And when all the words have gone
C B Em G
There's the thought to carry on
C D G Em
Just like a bird that sings
G C G
Leave it all behind and spread your wings

You can leave it all behind - spread your wings
