Verse & Chorus:
C G
I can't stand to fly
Am F
I'm not that naive
C G
I'm just out to find
Am F
The better part of me
C G
I'm more than a bird...I'm more that a plane
Am F
More than some pretty face beside a train
C G F C
It's not easy to be me
C G
Wish that I could cry
Am F
Fall upon my knees
C G
Find a way to lie
Am F
About a home I'll never see
C G
It may sound absurd...but don't be naive
Am F
Even heroes have the right to bleed
C G
I may be disturbed...but won't you concede
Am F
Even heroes have the right to dream
C G F C G
It's not easy to be me
Bridge:
Am G F Am
Up, up ahead away...away from me
D Am D
It's all right...you can all sleep sound tonight
F G
I'm not crazy...or anything...
Verse: (C,Am,F,G)
I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees
I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one-way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
It's not easy to be...me.
*(play intro again and end with a C)
