Collin Raye – Shes Gonna Fly (Guitar)

F                     F
This is the woman who had all the answers

    G                       C
The one I would lean on for comfort, for strength

      F               F
She's never forgotten one grandchild's birthday

    G                     F   C
Now she can't remember my name

       Am                 C
And it makes me so angry, I shake my fist

        F          C        G
And cry out to the heavenly one

Am                        C
Why would you play such a cold-hearted trick

F              C          G
I thought your job was to love

        F           A
And the answer came down from above

            C                             F
She's gonna fly-y-y when her time here is thru-u-u

                          G                                C
First, she'll have to let go. . . of some things she can't use

       F          G       E            Am
'Cause people and places, memories and faces

                          F             Dm       G       C   C   F   G
Are just way too heavy it seems. . . To carry on angel's wings

F                     F
This is the woman who saw things so clearly

    G                          C
The one who could pick out one crumb on the floor

    F                        F
She saw through a white lie, saw me through love's eyes

    G                 F    C
She hardly can see anymore

       Am                     C
And it makes me so sad and it just isn't fair

           F          C      G
Why should so much be taken away

         Am            C
But when I cry out for all that she's lost

  F        C            G
I silently hear someone say

            C                             F
She's gonna fly-y-y when her time here is thru-u-u

                          G                                C
First, she'll have to let go. . . of some things she can't use

       F          G       E            Am
'Cause people and places, memories and faces

                          F             Dm       G       C
Are just way too heavy it seems. . . To carry on angel's wings

    Bb          F
And oh. . . the wonders she'll see

      Fm                                 G
And I know she'll remember to watch over me

            D                             G
She's gonna fly-y-y when her time here is thru-u-u

                          A                                D
First, she'll have to let go. . . of some things she can't use

       G          A       F#           Bm
'Cause people and places, memories and faces

                          G             Em       A       Bm         A
Are just way too heavy it seems. . . To carry on angel's wings. . . oh

   G             A
To carry on. . . angel's. . . wings
