D A/C#
Turn me loose from your hands
G A7 D E7
Let me fly to distant lands / Over green fields
G D A7 D
trees and mountains/ Flowers and forest, fountains
G A7
/ Home along the line of the
D A/C#
skyway / For this dark and lonely room
G A7 D
projects a shadow castin' gloom
E7 G
And my eyes are mirrors of the world outside
D
Thinking of the way
A7 D
that the wind can turn the side
G A7 D
And these shadows turn from purple into grey
G A7
For just a skyline pigeon dreaming
D
of the open, wainting for the day
G A7 D
He can spread his wings and fly away again
F#7 Bm C#7
Fly away , skyline pigeon
F#m G
fly towards the dreams you've left so
D A7 D
very far behind
D
Just let me wake up in the morning /
A/C#
To the smell of new-mown hay
G A7 D
to laugh and cry to live and die In the brightness of my day
E
I want to hear the pealing bells of distant
G D
churches sing / But most of all please
A7 D
free me from this aching metal ring /
G A7 D
And open out this cage towards the sun .
