Chords

(Slowly, with a strong beat)
      A                A
Oh my home is in the mountains

       G          G
I am free, I am free

      A                  A
I am one with wind and eagles

   G
I am free

        A                   A
Given wings to sail in gracefulness

     G        G
The sky, The sky

        A                       A
Given voice to sing in breathlessness

    G             Bm     E    A
I find that I can fly! (fly away)
(Quickly)
   F                        F
I been a long time on the highway

          C                 C
I been a long time one the run

     C                  C
And it gets to be like chaos

          F                F
When I'm so long away from home

     F                              F
And sometimes its just too much to bear

        C              C
And I hide behind my eyes

     C                   C                  F
I can picture friendly faces and I can dream of friendly skies

        G                    G
And I guess that I'm the lucky one

         D                D
For the truth of what I know

     D                     D                  G
For my heart has not denied me, and I have somewhere to go

    G                            D
I shall never be a prisoner of steel and glass and stone

           D                    D                        G
And if I leave I will return again to my Rocky Mountain home

          D                G                D               G
Oh-lu-li-yea-ee-uuh-lu-lu-lu-ooh, yea-lu-li-yea-ee-lu-lu-lu-lu

          D               G                 D              G    (G#) (A)
Oh-lu-li-yea-ee-uuh-lu-lu-lu-ooh, yea-lu-li-yea-ee-lu-lu-lu-lu
(Slowly)
    A                 A
Oh my home is in the mountains

  G              G
I am free I am free

  A                 A
I am one with wind and eagles

       G
I am free

       A                    A
Given wing to sail in gracefulness

     G       G
The sky the sky

        A                    A
Given voice to sing in breathlessness

    G              Bm   E    A
I find that I can fly, fly away
(Slowly)
 A                  D   A
In the hands of my Father

 A                  D     A
In the light of the sunshine

 A                 D   A      E
On the wings of an eagle

      E        A         D       E
I'm flying again (I'm flying again)

      E      A          D        E
I'm flying again (I'm flying again)

      E       A         D        E
I'm flying again (I'm flying again)

      E       A             D       A
I'm flying again (and I'm flying again)
