[Verse]
E       A                          E
Seen it written and I've heard it told

        A                   E
That a man does things for gold

             A                     E
Drives him crazy and it makes him old

             B
Before his time

              C#m                E
Sittin' 'round waitin' for the rainbow's end

         A                E
Wastin' time and loosin' friends

       G#m             C#m  A          B
Never knowin' that it ends before his eyes

      A      E
But those of us who seek the truth

         B               E
Will be there when she rides
[Chorus]
                E
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings

B                      E
Pickin' us up by the waves

             A                             E
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'

       A        E         B       A    E
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings

            A          B            E
Once met a man and his words were wise

         A              E
And he looked me in the eyes

          G#m              C#m
He said brother don't you compromise

          B
What you feel
[Verse]
             C#m          E
All things figure in a bigger plan

          A      E
And it's up to veryman

        G#m             C#m      A     B
Just to do the best to reach his own ideals

     A              E
And build a world around himself

     B                E
And live it like he feels
[Chorus]
                E
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings

B                      E
Pickin' us up by the waves

             A                             E
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'

       A        E         B       A    E
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings

                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings

F#m
Pickin' us up by the waves

             B                       F#m
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'

       B        F#m         C#m  B     F#m
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings

                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
                F#m
Talkin' 'bout wings

C#m                    F#m
Pickin' us up by the waves

             B                       F#m
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'

       B        F#m        C#m   B
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings
[Outro] F#m C#m B F#m
