F#m  E  A D  E
    Leave it be
F#m  E    A        D                E
    Don't make the same mistakes as me
         D        E
Cause I gave up quickly
   F#m         A            E
To fly like a bird on the breeze
       D           E
And I fell down swiftly,
  F#m        A              E
Shaking the fruit from the trees
  F#m     A            E
Tearing holes in the knees of my jeans
    D     A        E               F#m  E  A  D  E
So don't make the same mistakes as me


F#m   E  A   D   E
    Save it, please
F#m   E  A     D    E
    Save our sweet simplicity
            D        E
And you'll rise up gently
     F#m         A            E
To float like a bird on the breeze
             D          E
And you'll climb down slowly,
F#m       A       E
Taken to feet gracefully
         F#m          A             E
Treading soft on the soles of your feet
         D     A         E              F#m  E  A  D  E
And you won't make the same mistakes as me


          D         E
So let's rise up gently,
  F#m          A            E
Floating like birds on the breeze
           D         E
And we'll take it  slowly,
F#m       A             E
Over the town and the trees
           F#m
And we'll land
           A              E
Where the sand meets the sea
         F#m           A           E
We'll be soft on the soles of our feet
        D      A        E              F#m   E   A   D   E
And we won't make the same mistakes as me
