As recorded by Emmylou Harris feat. Delia Bell (From the 1976 Album LUXURY LINER - CD REISSUE BONUS TRACK) [Intro] C F C G C [Verse 1]
C             G        F             C
The window is open, so why don't you fly?

                                              G
Could it be you have lost all the yearning to try?

               C               F           C
Your cage is a prison, they've kept you so long

                                 G            C
But wings are for flying and the throat for a song
[Chorus]
   F                     G           C
So fly like an eagle and land like a dove

                           D                 G
Go find all the places you must have dreamed of

     C                          F             C
Fly away with your troubles and drop them somewhere

                               G            C
And if you're only dreaming, I don't really care
[Verse 2]
C                           F                C
They won't even miss you or ask where you've been

                                               G
They'll feed you and listen for a song now and then

             C            F            C
Fly over the mountain and come back to me

                                G          C
And tell in your song what it's like to be free
[Chorus]
   F                     G           C
So fly like an eagle and land like a dove

                           D                 G
Go find all the places you must have dreamed of

     C                          F             C
Fly away with your troubles and drop them somewhere

                               G            C
And if you're only dreaming, I don't really care
[Mandolin Solo] C F C D G Am F C G A [Verse 3]
    D                     G         D
God gave us the places to labor and strive

                                         A
But if living ain't nothing but staying alive

                 D         G               D
Then give me the dying, if that's what you found

                               A              D
Don't sing on my grave or drop flowers on the ground
[Out-Chorus]
    G                           A           D
For I'll fly like and eagle and land like a dove

                              E              A
I'll find all the places that I have dreamed of

     D                        G             D
Fly away with my troubles and drop them somewhere

                            A            Bm   G
And if I'm only dreaming, I don't really care

       D                    A            D
And if I'm only dreaming, I don't really care
