G                         D  
Paper wings, all torn and bent  
                                           G  
But you made me feel like they were heaven sent  
      G                  D  
Paper wings, not real at all  
                                        G  
But they took me high enough to really fall  
       C                    G  
Your paper kisses, faded too soon  
           A            D  
Just like a paper rose, beneath a paper moon  
      G            C  
Paper wings, paper wings  
   D                                         G  
Oh how could I expect to fly with only paper wings  
   
  
        C                  G          
Angels singing, didn't you hear  
           A                           D  
If only I'd listened close, when they whispered in my ear  
  
  
G                  C  
Paper wings, paper wings  
    D                                        G  
Oh how could I expect to fly with only paper wings  
  D                                            G  
I tried to fly but found that I had only paper wings
