C Em 4x D G 2x Am G D 2x C C High above the weary world Em I wait and watch and think of you. C I never thought that life would find me Em Laughing with the pale moon. D The patchwork of the land below me G Endless ribbons in the night. D I'll never again be who I was: G A child before my soul took flight. Am G I stop to think of all I've lost; D The list begins and ends with you. Am G Don't be afraid of who I am, D This strength is what I've come into. Em C Em C Em C G D Em C Fly with me, G D Forget the past. Em C We can build the future G D In steel and brass. Em C Those below G D We leave behind.

Am G I will not mourn what might have been, D Our story's done before it starts. Em C G D Em C Fly with me, G D Forget the past. Em C We can build the future G D In steel and brass. Em C Those below G D We leave behind. Em C Conquering the clouds G D As gears unwind. Em G D 2x Am G D 2x Em G D 2x Am G D 2x
