verse 1
D A/C#
Turn the loose from your hands
G A A7 DLet me fly to distant lands
Over green fields, trees and mountains
D/A A A7 DFlowers and forest fountains
G D/A A7 DHome along the lanes of the skyway
verse 2
D A/C#For this dark and lonely room
G A A7 DProjects a shadow cast in gloom
And my eyes are mirrors
GOf the world outside
D/AThinking of the way
That the wind can turn he tide
GAnd these shadows turn
D/A A7 DFrom purple into grey
ChorusG
For just this Skyline Pigeon
D/A A7Dreaming of the open
Waiting for the day
GHe can spread his wings
D/A A7 D F#7/C#And fly away again
Fly away Skyline pigeon fly
G D/A A7 DTowards the dreams you left so very far behind
(repeat from fly away)
Verse 3
(Same chords as verses 1 & 2)
Just let me wake up in the morning
to the smell of new mown hay
to laugh and cry, to live and die
I the brightness of my day
I want to hear the pealing bells
Of distant churches sing
But most of all please free me
from this aching metal ring
and open out this cage towards the sun
(Repeat chorus)
