[Intro]
F#
(play the F# root note as a bass line and continue throughout the whole song)[Verse 1]
F# B Passed him by a long time ago F# oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh F# B But didn't stop to pick him up that day even though he was late F# We drove by
[Verse 2]
F# A year later my family moved, he moved to the same town far away F# B We became friends, smoked cigs, played ball together in all kinds of weather F# We worked on our jump shot
[Chorus 1]
C# F# Bucky little wing, you flew away F# His name was Charles, he was my friend B We got along, but in the end C# F# Bucky little wing, you flew away
[Verse 3]
F# B It was tough being weak, while Bucky was strong C# His daddy died in a car wreck F# B And I got sick of being pushed around F# Standing my ground when Bucky had my back
[Chorus 2]
C# F# Hiding in a bush and it's okay F# We started rolling with a different crew B Before I knew it we drifted to C# F# Bucky little wing you flew away
[Bridge 1]
F# B Once some racist kids, this is what I heard, F# C# pushed him underneath a moving truck F# B It swerved but got his head on accident F# C# They ran like devils in the night
[Verse 4]
F# B F# Word was he died. I didn't cry but oh, oh how I tried
[Bridge 2]
F# B F# Monday came and he did too, so he didn't die B C# Just some violet bruises and one shut eye
[Verse 5]
F# B F# Can't believe that he survived, he was like a ghost after that day
[Chorus 3]
C# F# But he was just so mighty you might say F# His name was Charles, he was my friend B We got along but in the end C# F# Bucky little wing you flew away
