         F
I was an eagle but I cannot fly,

                            Bb
I was a lion, but I run no more,

         F
I was a river, but the river's dry,

     Bb                                   F
And soon the spirit is coming to take me home,

               F
I've seen the sunrise in a thousand ways,

                                   Bb
I've seen the wonder of a summer storm,

             F
I've seen a mountain that touched the sky,

     Bb                                   F
And soon the spirit is coming to take me home,

         C               Bb
Do not cry for me, I am with the stars,

         C              Bb
Do not cry for me, I am in the wind,

         C               Bb
Do not cry for me, I am with the rain,

     Bb                                   F
And soon the spirit is coming to take me home,

            F
I have my children, I have seen them grow,

                                 Bb
I have a garden that is all the world,

              F
We come with nothing, that's how we'll go,

     Bb                                   F
And soon the spirit is coming to take me home,

         C               Bb
Do not cry for me, I am with the sun,

         C              Bb
Do not cry for me, I am in the wind,

         C               Bb
Do not cry for me, I am with the stars,

And soon the spirit is coming to take me home,
