F C F C

Days up and down they come like Rain on a conga drum

C G F C

Forget most, remember some but don't turn none away

F C F C

Everything is not enough & nothin' is too much to bear

C G F C

Where you've been is good and gone all you keep is the gettin' there

CHORUS:

F C F G

To Live Is To Fly Both low and high

C G

So shake the dust off of your broken wings

F C

And the sleep out of you eyes

Good-by to all my friends it's time to go again

Just think about the poetry and the pickin' down the line

I'll miss the system here the bottom's low and the treble's clear

But it don't pay to think too much on the things you leave behind

CHORUS

We all got holes to fill & them holes are all that's real

Some fall on you like a storm sometimes you dig your own

The choice is yours to make, time is yours to take

Some sail upon the sea some toil upon the stone

FINAL CHORUS:

To Live Is To Fly Both low and high

So shake the dust off of your broken wings

And the sleep out of you eyes

Shake the dust off of your wings

And the tears out of your eyes...
