Intro: ||: G | D :||
G D
Big blue skies in the northern field
G
My right hand on the steering wheel
Bm – A
2 young lovers running wild
G D
We bought string and a brand new kite
G
We couldn’t wait to watch it fly
But it flew too high,
Bm – A – E/G#
It flew too high

Chorus:
G
Here comes the wind
D
Let your string unwind
G
Run as fast as you can in your mind
Bm
Back to a place that you never forgot
A G
Before everything was lost
Bm
I don’t remember when we ran out of rope
A E/G#
When we did we lost all hope
D – G
We just stood there crying
D
That’s what we learned about flying
G D
So I took your hand and you took mine
G
And we waltzed together in time
Bm – A
But looking back I guess I didn’t know
G
That I was in love and you were letting go
D
It’s funny how you mind plays tricks on you
D
Seems like the higher and higher we flew
Bm
You took off and I was made of stone
A – E/G#
I was made of stone!
(Repeat Chorus – Instrumental – Repeat Chorus)
