Well, I guess that you probably know by now
   Em
I was one who wanted to fly
             C                     D                  G     D
I wanted to ride on that arrow of fire right up into heaven
       G                          
And I wanted to go for every man, 
        Em
every child, every mother of children
             C                       D                       G   D
I wanted to carry the dreams of all people right up to the stars
        G         
And I prayed that I'd find an answer there
    Em
Or maybe I would find the song
          C                   D                      G    D
Giving a voice to all of the hearts that can not be heard
        G
And for all of the ones who live in fear
    Em
And all of those who stand apart
           C                     D                    G    
My being there would bring us a little step closer together

                      C              D             G
They were flying for me, they were flying for everyone
                     C               D                    G
They were trying to see, a brighter day for each and everyone
                    C                          D      
They gave us their light, they gave us their spirit, 
                    Em  C  
and all they could be 
            D         G  C             D         G
They were flying for me,   they were flying for me

       G
And I wanted to wish on the Milky Way 
     Em
and dance upon the falling star
             Am                C             Am                  D      
I wanted to give myself, and free myself, enjoin' myself with it all!

   G   Em   Am   C   Am   D

            G
Given the chance to dream, it can be done
      Em
The promise of tomorrow is real
              C                   D                   G
Children of spaceship Earth, the future belongs to us all

                    C            D             G
She was flying for me, she was flying for everyone
                   C               D                    G
She was trying to see, a brighter day for each and everyone
                 C                       D      
She gave us her light, she gave us her spirit, 
                   Em  C  
and all she could be
          D         G             
She was flying for me

                      C              D             G
They were flying for me, they were flying for everyone
                     C               D                    G
They were trying to see, a brighter day for each and everyone
                    C                          D      
They gave us their light, they gave us their spirit, 
                    Em  C  
and all they could be
            D         G  C             D         G
They were flying for me,   they were flying fot me
            D         G  C             D         G
they were flying for me,   they were flying for me.
