Bent To Fly chords by Slash

Chords with lyrics

Okay. This song just came out and I thought I would figure out the chords so I could sing along to them.
 I think they are pretty much 100% right.


Intro: Dm, G, FF (power chord)


Verse:

DmDm
Mama, don't you cry
G+G        FF
Don't you worry
DmDm           G+G    FF
I cannot stay here any longer
DmDm            G+G         FF
The time has come to find a distant calling
DmDm             G+G    FF
That only seems to get much stronger

Pre Chorus:

FF (open chord), A, G, Bb, F, C majorC

FF          A augmentedA
And I know it's hard
(A augmentedA)             G+G
To see the one you come to lean on make his way
    Bb majorBb
Far beyond the womb
   FF    C majorC
But, I can't stay


Chorus:
 DmDm
I won't stop running
         G+G
I'm only getting closer
                DmDm  G+G
To getting off the ground this ti......me
  DmDm                 G+G
The sky is calling, the wind is at my shoulders
               DmDm G+G
Won't let this chance pass me b.....y
          DmDm
Mama, I'm bent to fly

Repeat Verse progression x 2


Verse:

Remember yesterday
Before the storm
Before the innocence was lost
I promised I would stay forevermore
But every boy, in time, moves on


Pre Chorus:

Your wounds will heal someday
This I know, but I am restless and so torn
Mama, I can't stay here anymore


Chorus:

 DmDm
I won't stop running
         G+G
I'm only getting closer
                DmDm  G+G
To getting off the ground this ti......me
  DmDm                 G+G
The sky is calling, the wind is at my shoulders
               DmDm  G+G
Won't let this chance pass me b.....y
          A augmentedA
Mama, I'm bent to fly


Bridge: (Strum an A augmentedA chord with occasional G+G bass note embellishments. Sounds pretty good.)

A augmentedA          G+G
I can feel it coming
A augmentedA            G+G
A augmentedA perfect storm is rising
A augmentedA            A augmentedA G+G FF E MajorE DmDm
Gotta say my last goodbye...


Solo: (Verse progression)


DmDm
Mama, don't you cry
G+G        FF
Don't you worry
DmDm           G+G
I cannot stay here any longer...


Chorus:

 DmDm
I won't stop running
         G+G
I'm only getting closer
                DmDm  G+G
To getting off the ground this ti......me
  DmDm                 G+G
The sky is calling, the wind is at my shoulders
               DmDm  G+G
Won't let this chance pass me b.....y
          DmDm
Mama, I'm bent to fly



The rest of the song is the Verse progression except the end which is the Bridge ending on a DmDm chord.
