Rhythm tips ↓-↓↑-↑↓↑

Everybody’s looking for a some[G]thing, one thing that makes it all complete [Em] You’ll find it in the strangest [C]places, places you never knew it could be [D] Some find it in the face of their [G]children, some find it in their lover’s [Em]eyes Who can deny the joy it [C]brings, when you’ve found that [D]special thing

You’re flying without [G]wings, some find it [G]sharing every morning Some in their solitary [Em]lives, you’ll find it in the [C]words of others A simple line can [D]make you laugh or cry, you’ll find it in [G]the deepest friendship The kind you cherish [Em]all your life, and when you know how much it [C]means You’ve found that [D]special thing, you’re flying without [G]wings

So, impossible [C]as it may [D]seem, you’ve got [Em]to fight for every dream ‘Cause who’s [C]to know which one [Cm]you let go, would have made you [D]complete

Well, for me it’s [G]waking up beside you, to watch the [Em]sunrise on your face To know that I [C]can say I love you, in any given time or [D]place It’s little things that only I know, [G]those are the [Em]things that make you mine And it’s like [C]flying without wings, ’cause you’re my special [D]thing I’m flying [G]without wings

And in this place I [C]long to be, you’ll be where [D]it ends I’m flying [C]without wings, and that’s the joy you [D]bring I’m flying [G]without wings
