Skyline Pigeon
Elton John
Ton : D
DTurn me loose frA/C#om your hands
Let me Gfly A7 to distant lDands / Over
E7green fields
trees and mGountains/ FDlowers A7and
forest, fouDntains
/ HoGme along the line of A7the
Dskyway / For this dark and lonely
A/C#room
projects a sGhadowA7 castin' gDloom
And my eyes areE7 mirrors of the
Gworld outside
Thinking of tDhe way
A7that the wind can tuDrn the side
And these sGhadows turn from pA7urple
into greDy
For just a skGyline pigeon dA7reaming
of the open, waDinting for the day
He can sGpread his wings anA7d fly
away agDain
F#7 Fly aBmway , C#7skyline pigeon
F#mfly towards the
Gdreams you've left so
Dvery fA7ar behDind
Just let me Dwake up in the morning /
To the A/C#smell of new-mown hay
to laugh and cGry to live andA7 die In
the brDightness of my day
I want to
Ehear the pealing bells of distant
Gchurches sing / But most of
allD please
free me A7from this aching
Dmetal ring /
And Gopen out this cA7age towards the
Dsun .
