As the crow flies, baby

As the crow flies, baby

I ain't so far from you

    A
But since I don't have wings

        G                             D
I can't get home as fast as I want to

In a dream last night,

D
Where I heard you call my name,

     G
In a dream last night,

                          D
Where I heard you call my name,

        A
Well, I took it as an omen,

      D                                G
And I jumped on the very first freight train.

D
Yeah...

How I miss your sweet caress,

Well, you don't know baby,

How I miss your sweet caress,

When I&prime;m in your lovin' arms,

I swear I&prime;m at my very best.

As the crow flies baby,

That's how I'm on my way,

As the crow flies baby,

I&prime;m on my way.

If I don&prime;t stop runnin',

      G
I can get home for the break of day,

G
Get home for the break of day,

Get home for the break of day,

Get home for the break of day,
