[ Предположительная тональность: C ] High-Flying Bird by Elton John & Bernie Taupin Taken from "Don't Shoot Me, I'm Only the Piano Player" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: This song was originally played in Ab. I have shifted it down one key to make it easier to play and sing. If you want it back in its original key, you can always use a capo or transpose back up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [G F7M C F7M C] x 2 G C You wore a little cross of gold around your neck, G D I saw it as you flew between my reasons, Am C Like a raven in the night time when you left. G C I wear a chain upon my wrist that bears no name, G D You touched it and you wore it, Am C And you kept it in your pillow all the same. G C My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms, Am I thought myself her keeper, D She thought I meant her harm, G She thought I was the archer, C A weather man of words, F7M C But I could never shoot down, G F7M C F7M C My high-flying bird. G C The white walls of your dressing room are stained in scarlet red. G D You bled upon the cold stone like a young man, Am C In the foreign field of death. G C Wouldn't it be wonderful is all I heard you say, G D You never closed your eyes at night and learned to love daylight, Am C Instead you moved away. G C My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms, Am I thought myself her keeper, D She thought I meant her harm, G She thought I was the archer, C A weather man of words, F7M C But I could never shoot down, G C My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms, Am I thought myself her keeper, D She thought I meant her harm, G She thought I was the archer, C A weather man of words, F7M C But I could never shoot down, G F7M C F7M C My high-flying bird. G C My high-flying, high-flying bird. G C My high-flying, high-flying bird. G C G My high-flying, high-flying bird. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is probably my favorite song on the "Don't Shoot Me" album. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by He-Man Dan, the proud founder of the Anti-Cat Society and He-Man's Cat Exterminators.
