D(add E) / / / / / / /

On and on they journey southward, to the land of warmer summers

On the way they shed their feathers

G A

For the poet's hand to write love letters

Flying high in straight formation, seeking out their destination

Em G A

Over seas and windswept forests, frost and snow they're soon forgotten

Trees are bare snowflakes are falling

You can hear their leaders calling

Em G

Follow me fly strong my brother, be strong of heart

A D

And help each other home

Dm7

And here I am, I'm just a man, and there you are among the stars

G A

Flying high searching for a new tomorrow, I wish I could follow

Nearer still to new horizons, chill winds blow so far behind them

Em G A

Endless days and sleepless nights, a borrowed gift navigates their flight

Still and pure this morning air, so tired now but almost there

The mysteries of nature's calling

G A D

Some will climb while others return back home
