Verse 

E       A                          E 
Seen it written and I've heard it told 
        A                   E 
That a man does things for gold 
             A                     E 
Drives him crazy and it makes him old 
             B 
Before his time 
              C#m                E 
Sittin' 'round waitin' for the rainbow's end 
         A                E 
Wastin' time and loosin' friends 
       G#m             C#m  A          B 
Never knowin' that it ends before his eyes 
      A      E 
But those of us who seek the truth 
         B               E 
Will be there when she rides 

 
                E 
Talkin' 'bout wings 
To carry us over the water 
                F#m 
Talkin' 'bout wings 
B                      E 
Pickin' us up by the waves 
             A                             E 
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin' 
       A        E         B       A    E 
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings 
            A          B            E 
Once met a man and his words were wise 
         A              E 
And he looked me in the eyes 
          G#m              C#m 
He said brother don't you compromise 
          B 
What you feel 


Verse 
             C#m          E 
All things figure in a bigger plan 
          A      E 
And it's up to veryman 
        G#m             C#m      A     B 
Just to do the best to reach his own ideals 
     A              E 
And build a world around himself 
     B                E 
And live it like he feels 

 
                E 
Talkin' 'bout wings 
To carry us over the water 
                F#m 
Talkin' 'bout wings 
B                      E 
Pickin' us up by the waves 
             A                             E 
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin' 
       A        E         B       A    E 
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings 
                F#m 
Talkin' 'bout wings 
To carry us over the water 
                F#m 
Talkin' 'bout wings 
F#m 
Pickin' us up by the waves 
             B                       F#m 
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin' 
       B        F#m         C#m  B     F#m 
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings 
                F#m 
Talkin' 'bout wings 
To carry us over the water 
                F#m 
Talkin' 'bout wings 
C#m                    F#m 
Pickin' us up by the waves 
             B                       F#m 
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin' 
       B        F#m        C#m   B 
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings
