           It makes sense that it should happen this way
                          Em                                      G
           That the sky should break, and the earth should shake
                D             F                                  C                      G                  D
           As if to say, sure it all matters, but in such an unimportant way
                        C     G    A
           As if to say, hey hey hey ay

                                     D                D2       F#m
                             Fly away, sweet bird of prey
                                            Bm
                             Fly, fly away
                                                G
                             Nothing can stand in your way
                                        D add4        A
                             Sweet bird,  if you knew the words
                                                   C     G    A
                             I know you'd say, fly, fly away

           It makes sense that it should hurt in this way
           That my heart should break, and my hands should shake
           As if to say, sure it don't matter except in the most important way
           As if to say, hey hey hey ay

                             Fly away, sweet bird of prey
                             Fly, fly away
                             I won't stand in your way
                             Sweet bird, if you knew the words
                                                           C     G    A A/A# Bm
                             I know that you'd say, fly, fly away
                                             *Solo*    G  D  C  G  Em  A

           It makes sense that it should feel just this way
           That you slowly fade and yet still remain
           As if to say, everything matters in such an invisible way
                        C             Em     A    G      D   D
           As if to say, it's okay - fly away...
                                                                      C G D (repeat & fade)
