Intro:  Bb   Eb (2x) 

Bb                                                Eb 
It must have been cold there in my shadow, 
Bb                                          Eb 
to never have sunlight on your face. 
Cm                                   F 
You were content to let me shine, that's your way, 
Cm                                    F 
you always walked a step behind. 
Bb                                      Eb 
So I was the one with all the glory, 
Eb                                                    Eb 
while you were the one with all the strength. 
Cm                                F 
A beautiful face without a name -- for so long,  
Cm                                   F 
a beautiful smile to hide the pain. 
 
Chorus: 
Gm               Eb                           Bb 
Did you ever know that you're my hero, 
Gm              Eb                    Bb 
and ev'rything I would like to be? 
Gm          Eb                  Bb 
I can fly higher than an eagle, 
Eb                         F                       Bb 
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings. 
 
It might have appeared to go unnoticed, 
but I've got it all here in my heart. 
I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it, 
I would be nothing with out you. 
(Chorus) 
Fly, fly, fly away, 
you let me fly so high. 
Oh, fly, fly, 
so high against the sky, so high I almost touch the sky. 
Thank you, thank you, thank God for you, 
the wind beneath my wing
