When the shore ice is melting in Kodiak Bay
Knowing that Spring is well on its way
He calls to his mate of a lifetime, to a yearly nest in the thorn
Planting the egg in the branches
With God's assistance, an occasional is born
Chorus:
A G D
And he fli-i-es, covering the land
A F# Bm F#m G Em
Stirring the hearts through all generations of man
G A D G A D
A picture of courage and beauty, a symbol of freedom and right
G A D
Riding the wind through the mountains
G G/F# Em A D
Guided by nature, an occasional eagle in flight
Instrumental:
When I was younger and without a care
For granted I thought he would always be there
But now I only hear stories that the great bird of truth is alive
With a fist in my pocket I'm prayin'
An eternal prayer that the great bird of truth will survive
Chorus:
And he fli-i-es, covering the land
Stirring the hearts through all generations of man
Poets tell of his bearing, truth on a feathery wind.
Painters paint from inspiration.
