Wings

E       A                         
Seen it written and I've heard it 
 E
told
        A                   E
That a man does things for gold
             A                   
Drives him crazy and it makes him 
  E
old
             B
Before his time
              C#m             
Sittin' 'round waitin' for the 
   E
rainbow's end
         A                E
Wastin' time and loosin' friends
       G#m             C#m  A    
Never knowin' that it ends before
      B
 his eyes
      A      E
But those of us who seek the truth
         B               E
Will be there when she rides

[Chorus]
                E
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings
B                      E
Pickin' us up by the waves
             A              
Aw, so many things can breed 
               E

We'll soon be landin' on velvet

wings
            A          B          
Once met a man and his words were 
  E
wise
         A              E
And he looked me in the eyes
          G#m              C#m
He said brother don't you compromise
          B
What you feel

[Verse]
             C#m          E
All things figure in a bigger plan
          A      E
And it's up to veryman
        G#m             C#m      
Just to do the best to reach his 
A     B
own ideals
     A              E
And build a world around himself
     B                E
And live it like he feels
