Capo 2
 
Em G* x2
 
Em               G*
We belonged to a bird
Em                          G*
Who cast his shadow on this world
Cmaj7                   Am
You were a blessing and I was a curse
Am                    G                 Cma7*
I did my best not to make things worse, for you
Em       G*
It isn't true
Em                              G*
I always knew this would be our fate
Cma7                         Am
This is what happens when we separate
Am                      G                     Cma7*
This is what happens to all dead weight, eventually
Em                        G*
We may as well be made of stone
Em          G
We can't be formed
 
Cmaj7                     Am
One Wing will never fly
                  G
Neither yours nor mine
                        Cmaj7*
I fear we can only wave goodbye
 
Em G* x2
Cmaj7
 
Cmaj7                    Am
One Wing will never ever fly
                  G
Neither yours nor mine
D
 
Cmaj7                    Am
One Wing will never ever fly dear
                  G
Neither yours nor mine
                        Cmaj7
I fear we can only wave goodbye
 
Asus2               Am
One Wing will never fly dear
                  G
Neither yours nor mine
                        Cmaj7*
I fear we can only wave goodbye

D]-7-----7---- A]-9-x16-7-x16 E]-9-----9---- and then the riff is like D]-9/11-9\7-- A]----------9 E]----------- I dont know if thats how they actually play it but it sounds pretty good to me

Makes sense. You're right. I was thinking about the riff alone. To play the song you couldn't possible play it and then use the Em and have it sound right. Thanks again for the chords. It's a great song from a great band.
