[D]Sammy was low
[E7]Just watching the show
[G]Over and [Gm]over ag[D]ain
Knew it was time
He'd made up his mind
To leave his dead life behind
His [Bm]boss said to him
Bm/A Bm/G# ( Bm/A = x0443x ; Bm/G# = 4x44xx )
"Boy you'd better begin
[G]To get those crazy [A]notions right [D]out of your head
[Em7]Sammy who do you [C7]think that you are?
[D]You should've been s[E]weeping [Gm]up the Emerald [D]Bar"
[D]Spread your wings and [Bm]fly away
E7 A ( E7=0x2132 or 07677x )
Fly away, far away
Spread your little wings and fly away
Fly away, far away
[Gm]Pull yourself together
'Cos you [D]know you should do better
xx0330 D
That's because you're a free man

[Bm]He spends his evenings alone [Bm/A]in his hotel [Bm/G#]room
[A]Keeping his thoughts to himself, [F#sus4]he'd be leaving [F#]soon
Wishing he was miles and miles away
Nothing in this world, nothing would make him stay
G A D xx0333 xx0434 E A
Since he was small
Had no luck at all
Nothing came easy to him
Now it was time
He'd made up his mind
"This could be my last chance"
His boss said to him, "Now listen boy!
You're always dreaming
You've got no real ambition, you won't get very far
Sammy boy, don't you know who you are?
Why can't you be happy at the Emerald Bar?"
So honey
Spread your wings and fly away
Fly away, far away
Spread your little wings and fly away
Fly away, far away
Pull yourself together
'Cos you know you should do better
That's because you're a free man
