On Silent Wings

[Intro] G

      Em              D           
There was a time when I would have
  G
 followed you
Em     Em7         C
To the end of the earth
Am                        Em
I was willing to share it all with 
you
D
The love, the hurt
      Em                  D       
I've seen you when your dreams 
          G
were falling in the dust
Bm                     Bm      C
But I never stopped believing in you
Am                             Em
I always thought our love was strong
 enough
          F               A
One you could hold on to

     D            Bm
You never see it coming
          A
You just let it fly
    A      D    A        G     
On silent wings, silent wings
Bm7  A

D         A                  A7 
You can't hide what you you feel
      G
 inside

         G       D          Em7
And the fire has left your eyes
C9           G
On silent wings

   Em           D                
I see us in our dreams and we're 
G
dancing
Em       Em7          C
I can almost hear the song
Am                         Em
But the prayers, they go unanswered
D
But we both know, we're just hanging
 on

  Em                D             
I feel ashamed, but I'll never 
       G
know the reason why
Em                     Em7       
The rug was pulled so gently from
           C
 under my feet
Am                          Em
I only know that something good has 
died
         F                         
Between you and me, oh it's just a 
  A
memory

     D            A
You never see it coming
             G
You just go separate ways
    A      D    A        G    Bm7  A
On silent wings, silent wings
D               A     A7     G
There's no more promises to break
       G         D      Em7
Or our love has slipped away
            C
On silent wings

(From the solo on the last choruses 
are one note higher!!)

     E            B
You never see it coming
                 A
But you know it has to end
    B      E    B        A    C#   B
On silent wings, silent wings
E      B            Bm7   A
I will never be the same again
            A      E      B
I feel the whisper of the wind
          A2
On silent wings
