Wing Chords

   
Wing by Patti Smith

A simple, beautiful and very easy-to=play (all open chords!) song from Gone Again 
(the song is kind of like a lullaby).

Verses use the same two chords throughout, the chorus adds two more (four chords total).

(Gentle strums of A chord for 4 measures)


VERSES

       A
I was a wing 
              G
in heaven blue
                 A
soared over the ocean
                 G
soared over Spain
              A
and I was free
           G
needed nobody
          A
it was beautiful
          A
it was beautiful


       A
I was a pawn
                 G
didn't have a move
                A
didn't have nowhere
               G
that I could go
              A
but I was free
             G
I needed nobody
         A
it was beautiful
         A
it was beautiful

       A
I was a vision
              G
in another eye
                   A
and they saw nothing
              G
no future at all
             A
yet I was free
            G
I needed nobody
         A
it was beautiful
         A
it was beautiful
