Intro chords: Em Am
(VERSE) (Em) They came flyin' from far away, now I'm under their spell
I love hearing the (D) stories that they tell (Em)
They've seen places beyond my land and they've found new hori (Bm) zons
(Em) They speak strangely (D) but I understand (Em)
And I dream I'm an eagle (B7) (Em)
And I dream I can spread my wings (A7)
(CHORUS) Flyin' (G) high, (D) high, I'm a (Em) bird in the sky (D)
I'm an (Em) eagle that (D) rides on the breeze (Em)
High, high, what a feeling to fly
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please
(VERSE) As all good friends we talk all night, and we fly wing to wing
I have questions and they know everything
There's no limit to what I feel, we climb higher and higher
Am I dreamin' or is it all real
Is it true I'm an eagle
Is it true I can spread my wings
(CHORUS)
And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings
(CHORUS)
