Bucky Little Wing

F#
(play the F# root note as a bass 
line and continue throughout the 
whole song)

[Verse 1]
F#                         B
Passed him by a long time ago
                        F#
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
F#                                
But didn't stop to pick him up 
  B
that day even though he was late
         F#
We drove by

[Verse 2]
F#
A year later my family moved, he 
moved to the same town far away
F#                            
We became friends, smoked cigs, 
              B
played ball together in all kinds of
 weather
                      F#
We worked on our jump shot

[Chorus 1]
C#                           F#
Bucky little wing, you flew away
F#
His name was Charles, he was my 
friend
         B
We got along, but in the end
C#                           F#
Bucky little wing, you flew away

[Verse 3]
        F#                         
It was tough being weak, while 
      B
Bucky was strong
                    C#
His daddy died in a car wreck
F#                           
And I got sick of being pushed 
   B
around
Standing my ground when Bucky had my
 F#
 back

[Chorus 2]
C#                         F#
Hiding in a bush and it's okay
F#
We started rolling with a different 
crew
         B
Before I knew it we drifted to
C#                          F#
Bucky little wing you flew away

[Bridge 1]
F#                     B
Once some racist kids, this is what 
I heard,
F#                             C#
pushed him underneath a moving truck
F#                           
It swerved but got his head on 
  B
accident
F#                          C#
They ran like devils in the night

[Verse 4]
F#                         B     
Word was he died. I didn't cry 
               F#
but oh, oh how I tried

[Bridge 2]
F#              B                 
Monday came and he did too, so he 
F#
didn't die
          B                      
Just some violet bruises and one 
C#
shut eye

[Verse 5]
F#                              B
Can't believe that he survived, 
                              F#
he was like a ghost after that day

[Chorus 3]
C#                                
But he was just so mighty you 
  F#
might say
F#
His name was Charles, he was my 
friend
        B
We got along but in the end
C#                          F#
Bucky little wing you flew away
C#                          F#
Bucky little wing you flew away
