Chorus:
G D/F#
Cause we are
Em7 C
Like a wingless bird
G D/F#
Crashing down
Em7 C
To the helpless earth
G
And if somethin's gonna break it
D/F#
See it all around you
Em7 C
Feel it in your body
G
You'll be hiding in the shadows
D/F#
Where love is still alive
Em7 C
'Til all of it is burning
Through a field we're walkin
Empty as the open sky
We escape from all the troubles
Found a waterfall and
Took a dive to cool our skin
Finally we found this feelin'
Chorus
'Solo'
Run away from money
Quit your job and climb a tree
One with hearts instead of leaves
