D
     On and on they journey southward, to the land of warmer summers

   Em
     On the way they shed their feathers

    G                         A
     For the poet's hand to write love letters

    D
     Flying high in straight formation, seeking out their destination

   Em                                G              A
     Over seas and windswept forests, frost and snow they're soon forgotten

    D
     Trees are bare snowflakes are falling

    D
     You can hear their leaders calling

   Em                                G
     Follow me fly strong my brother, be strong of heart

          A               D
     And help each other home

  Dm7
     And here I am, I'm just a man, and there you are among the stars

                                        G                      A
     Flying high searching for a new tomorrow, I wish I could follow

    D
     Nearer still to new horizons, chill winds blow so far behind them

   Em                                  G                     A
     Endless days and sleepless nights, a borrowed gift navigates their flight

    D
     Still and pure this morning air, so tired now but almost there

   Em
     The mysteries of nature's calling

    G                       A                  D
     Some will climb while others return back home
