TITLE: Fly By Night
Lyrics and Chords


Why try? I know why
This feeling inside me says it's time I was gone
Clear head, new life ahead
It's time I was king now, not just one more pawn

/ D - Cadd9 - / C G Bb A / :

{Refrain}
Fly by night away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend

/ G D C G(VII) / G D A - / G D C - / C G Bb A /

Moon rise, thoughtful eyes
Staring back at me from the window beside
No fright, or hindsight
Leaving behind that empty feeling inside

{Refrain}

   Start a new chapter, I find what I'm after, is changing every day
   The change of a season's enough of a reason to want to get away
   Quiet and pensive, my thoughts apprehensive, the hours drift away
   Leaving my homeland, playing a lone hand, my life begins today

   / D - F - G C D - / Am - Fmaj7 - G - - - / :

{Refrain}

My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend

/ C G Bb A /

{Refrain}

My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend

/ C G Bb A / C G Bb A D - /
