Farewell Icarus
Mike Jeffery

Intro: /D  /A  /G  /D

[D] I wrote to you a [A] letter, but [G] penned a farewell [D] song,
[D] For knowing life is [A] better, by [G] knowing someone like [D] you.
[D] A voice for all of [A] nature, a [G] song that natures [D] due,
[D] We need you more then [A] ever, God[G]speed my friend who [D] flew.

Chorus
[G] From Cali[A]fornia to the [D] Colorado Rocky [G] Mountains,
[D] You left your [Bm] wax wings in [G] Monte[A]rey.
[G] Your going [A] home now to your [D] rivers and your [G] forest,
With a [Bm] full moon [A] shining and [G] friends you left [A] along the [D] way.

[D] Forever a [A] tribute in [G] Snowmass Color[D]ado,
[D] And land at [A] Lake Clark in [G] Alaska [D] too.
[D] Where deer can play in [A] wonder and [G] antelope can [D] gather,
[D] To frolic in the [A] wilderness, for [G] all our children to [D] view.

Chorus

[D] Eagle and [A] hawks have [G] wings that sore to [D] heaven,
[D] But you don’t [A] need them now, your [G] spirit has found a [D] way.
[D] Your voice now [A] lives forever, in our [G] hearts we sing a [D] new song,
[D] We need you more then [A] ever, God[G]speed my friend who [D] flew.
