Intro

, (Muted gallop on )

As the sun breaks above the ground

 An old man stands on the hill

 As the ground warms to the first rays of light

 A birdsong shatters the still

Br

 His eyes are ablaze

 See the madman in his gaze

Ch

Fly on your way like an eagle

Fly as high as the sun

 On your wings like an eagle

Fly and touch the sun

Vs

Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears

Look the old man in his eyes

As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd

In the name of God my father I fly

Br

His eyes seem so glazed

As he flies on the wings of a dream

Now he knows his father betrayed

Now his wings burn to ashes to ashes his grave

Ch

Fly on your way like an eagle

Fly as high as the sun

On your wings like an eagle

Fly and touch the sun

Solo
