Dm  G  Am  (4x)  C

[Verse 1]
       G/B Am  C                 F
A tall tree__, turn and face the west
          C                G      C
Oh, we're running with the wind
       G/B     Am         C               F
A high cliff-top__, we're waiting with the rest
         C            G     C
For this journey to begin


[Chorus]
          G/B    F           G7   C
But these broken wings won't fly
      G/B    F           G7   C
These broken wings won't fly
      G/B    F           G      C    G/B  Am   C
These broken wings won't fly at all


[Verse 2]
     G/B    Am     C               F
Eeh, how we laugh, maybe we should crawl
    C           G       C
And beg to be excused
         G/B  Am        C             F
We shout loudly__, have answers to it all
    C            G         C
But we have been refused


[Chorus]
          G/B    F           G7    C
But these broken wings won't fly
      G/B    F           G7    C
These broken wings won't fly
      G/B    F           G      C    G/B  Am   C
These broken wings won't fly at all


[Verse 3]
     G/B  Am         C                F
Girl child__, you're dancing with the stream
        C           G           C
Growing with the silver trees
           G/B   Am       C              F
Your young questions, you ask me what it means
    C           G      C
But I am not at ease


[Chorus]
          G/B    F           G7    C
And these broken wings won't fly
      G/B    F           G7    C
These broken wings won't fly
      G/B    F           G      C
These broken wings won't fly at all

[Verse 4]
       G/B Am  C                 F
A tall tree__, turn and face the west
          C                G      C
Oh, we're running with the wind
       G/B     Am         C               F
A high cliff-top__, we're waiting with the rest
         C            G     C
For this journey to begin
