F#m E A D E
Leave it be
F#m E A D E
Don't make the same mistakes as me
D E
Cause I gave up quickly
F#m A E
To fly like a bird on the breeze
D E
And I fell down swiftly,
F#m A E
Shaking the fruit from the trees
F#m A E
Tearing holes in the knees of my jeans
D A E F#m E A D E
So don't make the same mistakes as me
F#m E A D E
Save it, please
F#m E A D E
Save our sweet simplicity
D E
And you'll rise up gently
F#m A E
To float like a bird on the breeze
D E
And you'll climb down slowly,
F#m A E
Taken to feet gracefully
F#m A E
Treading soft on the soles of your feet
D A E F#m E A D E
And you won't make the same mistakes as me
D E
So let's rise up gently,
F#m A E
Floating like birds on the breeze
D E
And we'll take it slowly,
F#m A E
Over the town and the trees
F#m
And we'll land
A E
Where the sand meets the sea
F#m A E
We'll be soft on the soles of our feet
D A E F#m E A D E
And we won't make the same mistakes as me
