Rhythm tips ↓-↓↑-↓↑-↓↑

[A] [D] [A] [D] [A]Where did my wings [D]go? I could’ve sworn I could [A]fly. Straight up into the [D]sky; [A]boy, I should have [D]known. It was all just a [A]lie, no one on earth can [D]fly.

[Bm]Thought the things you [E7]said would turn out [Bm]true. Guess that’s what I [E7]get for trusting [Bm]you. You said if I be[D]lieved [E7]enough, that I would [A]fly. [D]Why didn’t [A]I? [D]

[A]Did faith let me [D]down, or did I not have [A]enough? That distinction is [D]tough, [A]still, I thought your [D]hands. Protected me from the [A]fall, did you mean that at [D]all?

[Bm]Thought the things you [E7]said would turn out [Bm]true. Was it even you [E]I listened [Bm]to? I thought if I be[D]lieved [E7]enough, that I would [D]fly.

[F#m]Air is rushing [E7]past, and I can barely [A]see. [D] [F#m]Seems like this [E7]fall will be the death of [A]me. [D] [F#m]Any second [E7]now, the ground will come to [A]take me [D]home.

[A] [D] [F#m]Suddenly, a [E7]peace that I cannot [A]explain [D] [F#m]Feels like the [E7]wind is running through my [A]veins. [D] Oh, and [F#m]all that I can [E7]do is close my eyes as you [A]lift me [D]up. You lift me [E7]up.

[Bm]All that I know [E7]now is sky and [Bm]cloud. Don’t know when my [E7]feet last touched the [Bm]ground. You said if I be[D]lieved [E7]enough, I would [A]fly
