Expecting To Fly

The Buffalo Springfield

C

C                      Gm
There you stood on the edge of your feather
F            G
Expecting to fly
C                Gm
While I laughed, I wondered whether 
F                G C
I could wave goodbye
F                  Bb
Knowin' that you'd gone

Cm            F
By the summer it was healing
Bb              Cm
We had said goodbye
                   F
All the years we'd spent with feeling
Bb           Cm
Ended with a cry

Bb                 Cm
Babe, ended with a cry
Bb                 Cm
Babe, ended with a cry

C          Gm
I tried so hard to stand
     F                        G
As I stumbled and fell to the ground 
C          Gm
So hard to laugh as I fumbled
    F                      G   C
And reached for the love I found
F              Bb
Knowin' it was gone

Cm         F
If I never lived without you
Bb               Cm
Now you know I'd die
           F
If I never said I loved you
Bb               Cm
Now you know I'd try

Bb                     Cm
Babe, now you know I'd try
Bb                     Cm
Babe, now you know I'd try
Bb
Babe
