High Flyin Bird  Richie Havens



[Em]There's a high flyin' bird, [A]flyin' way up in the [Em]sky....
and I w[D]onder if she looks down as she goes on [Em]by,
well, she's[D] flyin' so free and easy in the [B7] sky,
lord look at [Em]me here,[A] I'm rooted like a tree[Em]here[A?]
I've got those[G] sit down , can't[D] cry, Oh[C] Lord, I'm [B7]gonna die b[Em]lues
Now the sun, it comes up and it lights up the day,

and when he gets tired, lord goes on down his way,

to the east and to the west, he meets God everyday,

Lord look at me, I'm rooted like a tree...

got the sit down , can't cry, Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues


Now I had a woman, Lord she lived down by the mine

she ain't never seen the sun Oh, Lord, never stopped crying,

then one day my woman, up and died,

Lord she up and died now....oh lord she up and died now

Hey, she wanted to fly and the only way to fly is die, die, die.....


Well, there's a high flyin' bird, flyin' way up in the sky....

and I wonder if she looks down as she goes on by,

well, she's flyin' so free and easy in the sky,

Hey, lord look at me, I'm rooted like a tree

Got those sit down , can't cry, Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues

Got those sit down , can't cry, Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues

Hey, Yeah, Hey, Yeah....
