Word On a Wing- David Bowie

B E F# B F#
B E F# B F#

B             E               F#  B F#
In this age of grand illusion you walked into my life out of my dreams
     B               E          F#        B F#
I don't need another change, still you forced away into my scheme of things
B          E     F#       B F#
 You say we're growing, growing heart and soul
     B             E            F#     B F#
In this age of grand illusion you walked into my life out of my dreams
 B         E         F#  B F#
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
 B         E         F#  B F#
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
   B      E           F#         B F#
Oh sweet name, I call you again, you're born once again for me
    B               E
Just because I believe don't mean I don't think as well
    F#               B   F#
Don't have to question everything in heaven or hell
 C#        C#maj7   Bbm
Lord, I kneel and offer you my word on a wing
     F       F7       A        A7
And I'm trying hard to fit among your scheme of things
   Dm                E
It's safer than a strange land, but I still care for myself
    C           Dm  D7
And I don't stand in my own light
G   D               A     G  D
Lord, lord, my prayer flies like a word on a wing
            A     G
My prayer flies like a word on a wing
D              A        G
 Does my prayer fit in with your scheme of things?
     B             E           F#      B F#
In this age of grand illusion you walked into my life out of my dreams
B          E         F# B F#
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
     B            E
just as long as I can see, I'll never stop this vision flowing
F#                 B F#
I look twice and you're still flowing
     B                E        F#    B F#
Just as long as I can walk, I'll walk beside you, I'm alive in you
B          E         F#
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
     B     F#
And I'm ready to shape the scheme of things
G    E7
  Ooh, ready to shape the scheme of things
G    E7
  Ooh, ready to shape the scheme of things
  G  E7
  Ooh, ready to shape the scheme of things
  G  E7
  Ooh, ready to shape the scheme of things
  F#
  Ooh, Ah

 Lord, I kneel and offer you my word on a wing
