Time for Me to Fly chords
R.E.O. Speedwagon

There are other versions of this, but this is the one I play. I hadn't heard it in 
years, then it was on the radio the other day and I said, "Oh yeah!" As I recall 
I watched Kevin play it this way on Austin City Limits or something a looooooong 
time ago. I like it because it's all open chords (just slide E up and down the neck), 
and it seems to carry a little more of the pain and sadness with it. 
YMMV.

I've been around for you
     B
I've been up and down for you
    A                      E   [ch]Esus4/E[/ch]/[ch]Esus4/E[/ch]
But I just can't get any relief
                                
I've swallowed my pride for you
     B
I've lived and lied for you
    A                             E    [ch]Esus4/E[/ch]/[ch]Esus4/E[/ch]
But you still make me feel like a thief 

           B     
You got me stealing your love away
      A         E 
Cause you never give it
B  
Peeling the years away
    A          E 
And we can't relive it
A          E 
I make you laugh
    A           E    A/B (let the B ring)
And you make me cry
                              E   A/B/A/E/A/B/A
I believe it's time for me to fly

E
You said we'd work it out
    B     
You said that you had no doubt
     A                           E   [ch]Esus4/E[/ch]/[ch]Esus4/E[/ch]
That deep down we were really in love
             
Oh, but I'm tired of holding on
     B                          
To a feeling I know is gone
  A                         E    [ch]Esus4/E[/ch]/[ch]Esus4/E[/ch] 
I do believe that I've had enough 

          B      
I've had enough of the falseness
     A          E 
Of a worn out relation
 B        
Enough of the jealousy
        A      E 
And the in toleration
A          E 
I make you laugh
    A           E    A/B (let the B ring)   
And you make me cry
                              E   A/E
I believe it's time for me to fly 

             B

               B
(Time for me to fly)
                    A           E    A
And that's just how it's got to be
                           B
I know it hurts to say goodbye
                        A           B           E 
But it's time for me to fly yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
