[Verse 1]
Ab Db Dbadd9 Db
You wore a little cross of gold around your neck
Ab Eb
I saw it as you flew between my reason
Bbm Bbm/C Db Dbadd9 Db
Like a raven in the night time when you left
Ab Db Dbadd9 Db
I wear a chain upon my wrist that bears no name
Ab Eb
You touched it and you wore it
Bbm Bbm/C Db
And you kept it in your pillow all the same
[Chorus]
Db Dbadd9 Db Ab Absus4 Ab Ebsus4/Ab Eb
My high flying bird has flown from out my arms
Bbm
I thought myself her keeper
Eb
She thought I meant her harm
Eb7 Ab
She thought I was the archer
Absus4 Ab Ebsus4/Ab Eb
A weather man of words
Bbm Bbm/Ab Gb Db
But I could never shoot down Ohh Ohh

The white walls of your dressing room are stained in scarlet red
Ab Eb
You bled upon the cold stone like a young man

Instead you moved away

You wore a little cross of gold around your neck
I saw it as you flew between my reason
Like a raven in the night time when you left
I wear a chain upon my wrist that bears no name
You touched it and you wore it
And you kept it in your pillow all the same
My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms
I thought myself her keeper
She thought I meant her harm
She thought I was the archer
A weather man of words
But I could never shoot down
My high-flying bird
The white walls of your dressing room are stained in scarlet red
You bled upon the cold stone like a young man
In the foreign field of death
Wouldn't it be wonderful is all I heard you say
You never closed your eyes at night and learned to love daylight
Instead you moved away
My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms
I thought myself her keeper
She thought I meant her harm
She thought I was the archer
A weather man of words
But I could never shoot down
My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms
I thought myself her keeper
She thought I meant her harm
She thought I was the archer
A weather man of words
But I could never shoot down
My high-flying bird
My high-flying, high-flying bird
My high-flying, high-flying bird
My high-flying, high-flying bird
My high-flying, high-flying bird
