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
