Eagles Song
Imperials
D
I stood and watched an eagle fly
C G/B Bb
spread his wings and soar across the sky
Bb C D
so gracefully he flew
G D/F# Em D Bm
Ri- - - sing effortlessly
G A D
I wanted to know just how to be free
Tiny fingers curled round mine
perfectly formed - newborn - the image of two
Infinite mystery I wanted to know where life comes from
A A/G
What human intellect cant sway
Bm Bm/A G
Must be explained away
F C G
Earth wisdom religions of men
A A/G Bm Bm/A G
Searched without end to fill the spirit housed within
F C A
simplicity of God somehow escapes man
I reached for the eternal one
Creation He was waiting to reveal His purpose in me
He said this is where life begins
I made your spirit to glide on the wind
Em A7
Come lets fly on the wind
Come on lets fly on the wind
C G/B Bb C D
On the wind on the wind on the wind
Enjoy
