 There`s the thought to carry  on
C      D      G         Em   Em
 Just like A bird that sings
 Em             C                    G     G
Leave it all behind and spread your wings
         G              C                  G     G
You can leave it all behind - spread your wings

Saw the road move on before me
 C           Em    C     C           G   G   G
 Times when I was tired and lost my way
 G          D        Em        Em      G          G
Looking at life and strangely for the first time
 G             D            C
Thinking that I could stay here
         C           C     C    C
But the world moves on forever
