PAPER WINGS (Gillian Welch / David Rawlings)
Track 7 from "REVIVAL" (Almo, AMSD-80006)
CAPO 1
VERSE 1:
G D
Paper wings, all torn and bent
G
But you made me feel like they were heaven sent
G D
Paper wings, not real at all
G
But they took me high enough to really fall
C G
Your paper kisses, faded too soon
A D
Just like a paper rose, beneath a paper moon
G C
Paper wings, paper wings
D G
Oh how could I expect to fly with only paper wings
BRIDGE:
C G
Angels singing, didn't you hear
A D
If only I'd listened close, when they whispered in my ear
CODA:
G C
Paper wings, paper wings
D G
Oh how could I expect to fly with only paper wings
D G
I tried to fly but found that I had only paper wings
