Lift The Wings by Riverdance
Lift The Wings
The whole thing is originaly written for piano, but here's the chords. The words are
sometimes spaced, this is for the chords to be placed corectly, not pauses or sutch.
Intro: B7sus4 E/B F#m7 E/G# Asus2
B5
How can the small flowers grow,
G#m/B Em/B A/B
If the wild winds blow,
B5 Bm E5/B
And the cold snow is all around?
B5
And where will the frail birds fly,
G#m/B Em/B A/B
If their homes on high,
B5 Bm B
Have been torn down to the ground?
E E/G#
Lift the wings,
A A/B
And carry me away from here and,
E E/G#
Fill the sail,
A B
That breaks the line to home.
C#m G#m/B A E/G#
E B
But when I'm miles and miles away from you,
F#m/A E/B
I'm beside you, when I think of you,
A/B E F#m11
a Stóirín, a Ghrà.
B5
How can a tree stand tall,
G#m E/G# A
If a rain won't fall,
E5add9 D6 E5add4
To wash its branches down?
B5
And how can a heart survive,
G#m E/G# A
Can it stay alive,
E5add9 D6 B/D#
If its love's denied for long?
E E/G#
Lift the wings,
A A/B E
That carry me away from here and,
E/G#
Fill the sail,
A B
That breaks the line to home.
C#m G#m/B A E/G#
But when I'm miles and miles
F#m E B
apart from you,
F#m/A E/B
I'm beside you, when I think of you,
A/B
a Stóirín,
E/B
And I'm with you as I dream of you,
A/B
a Stóirín,
E/B
And this song will bring me near to you,
A/B E
a Stóirín, a Grá.
