G5 D5
Over the houses
A5 E5
The streets and the trees
C5 G5 D5
Over the dogs down below
B5 E5
They'll bark at our shadows
A5 C5 D5
As we float by on the breeze
D5 A5
Tonight we fly
E5 C5
Over the chimney tops
G5 D5
Skylights and slates ?
B5 E5
Looking into all your lives
A5 C5
And wondering why
D5 G5
Happiness is so hard to find
G5 D5 A5 E5
Over the doctor, over the soldier
C5 G5 D5 B5
Over the farmer, over the poacher
E5 G5 C5 E5
Over the preacher, over the gambler
A5 C5 G5 D5
Over the teacher, over the rambler
A5 E5 C5 G5
Over the lawyer, over the dancer
D5 B5 E5 G5 C5 E5
Over the voyeur, over the builder and the destroyer,
A5 C5 D5 G5
Over the hills and far away
D5 A5
Tonight we fly
E5 C5
Over the mountains
G5 D5
The beach and the sea
B5 E5 G5
Over the friends that we've known
C5 E5
And those that we now know
A5 C5 D5 G5
And those who we've yet to meet
D5 A5
And when we die
E5 G5 C5
Oh, will we be
D5 B5
That disappointed
E5
Or sad
G5 C5
If heaven doesn't exist
E5 A5
What will we have missed
C5 D5
This life is the best we've ever had
