 (Cmaj7 / Cadd9 pattern) 

  Cmaj7            Am 
I talk too much, I always do 
     Cmaj7          Am 
'Til sense is lost along with truth 
     Fmaj7          Cmaj7   | Cmaj7 | 
Your silence is the harmony 
   Fmaj7        Cmaj7       | Cmaj7 | 
To every word I truly mean 

Fmaj7      G 
. Oh, your mind is like a rare bird 
Cmaj7    Fmaj7 
. Flying high above the cold world 
Dm     G 
. Slow dancing in the thermals 
C               Cmaj7 
. Singing songs no one's ever heard 
Fmaj7 G 
.  So why'd he want to cage you 
Cmaj7  Fmaj7 
. Clip wings and try to tame you 
| Dm | G                        | Cmaj7 | Cmaj7 | 
  .    You were meant to be free 

        Cmaj7              Am 
Through state of fugue and breach of trust 
  Cmaj7        Am 
I see you new again my love 
    Fmaj7           Em        | Em | 
You hold so much so gracefully 
     Fmaj7      G      | G | 
From miracle to tragedy 

Fmaj7      G 
. Oh, your mind is like a rare bird 
Cmaj7    Fmaj7 
. Flying high above the cold world 
Dm     G 
. Slow dancing in the thermals

| Dm | G                        | Cmaj7 | Cmaj7 | 
  .    You were meant to be free 

G                     F 
. Some shine brighter than the sun 
                 Am 
Too brilliant to gaze upon 
               C/G       | C/G | 
And rarer than rhodium 
G                     F 
Hear me, wherever you are tonight 
              Am 
You better be flying high 
                      C/G         | C/G | 
Yeah, you'd better be flying high
