Am
Face down lying there on the pavement?
F
Your head’s spinning and you wonder where your faith went
C G
Your heart’s heavy and you don’t what to say
Am
I know it’s hard ‘cause you’re trying to believe it
F
So close your eyes and maybe you can see it
C G
There’s a blue sky just beyond the gray
Chorus
Am
You were born to fly
F
Like a firefly, like a firefly

Lightin’ up the sky, lightin’ up the sky
Am
You were made to soar

You were made for more, you were made for more
C G
You were born to fly, you were born to fly

I know the tears are weighing you down

It’s hard to breathe, but you just gotta let it out

Right now as you’re falling into pieces

Right not you only gotta realize

You were born to fly
