C/G
        This morning as i watched a bird
                                  Am
        Just spread its wings and fly
        C/G
        It was then a thought came over me
               G7           C/G
        And i wondered why can't i ?
            G7             C/G
        Oh why,oh why can't i ?

[Verse 2]
         F
        If i could only fly,you see
                                    Dm
        A lot of problems would be gone
          F
        When you think of just how much
            C7              F
        I'd save on shoes alone
           C7            F
        If i could only fly

[Verse 3]
        F
        I would never tear my clothes
                                 Dm
        Climbing in and out of trees
         F
        If i could only fly,i'd never crawl
            C7                F
        Or wear holes in my knees
           C7            F
        If i could only fly

[Verse 4]
        C/G
        How i'd love to spread my wings
                               Am
        And streak across the sky
        C/G
        I'd be off to see the world
           G7            C/G
        If i could only fly


                G7                 C/G
        But i'd always come right back
