Expecting To Fly chords
Buffalo Springfield (Neil Young) *
C
C Gm
There you stood on the edge of your feather

Expecting to fly
C Gm
While I laughed, I wondered whether
F G C
I could wave goodbye
F Bb
Knowin' that you'd gone
Cm F
By the summer it was healing
Bb Cm
We had said goodbye
F
All the years we'd spent with feeling
Bb Cm
Ended with a cry

Bb Cm
Babe, ended with a cry
Bb Cm
Babe, ended with a cry
C Gm
I tried so hard to stand
F G
As I stumbled and fell to the ground
C Gm
So hard to laugh as I fumbled
F G C
And reached for the love I found
F Bb
Knowin' it was gone
Cm F
If I never lived without you
Bb Cm
Now you know I'd die
F
If I never said I loved you
Bb Cm
Now you know I'd try
Bb Cm
Babe, now you know I'd try

Babe, now you know I'd try

Babe
