Paper Wings (Holroyd/Pritchard)
Em
His crazy frame against the dawn
D (sus2)
His hungry leap and ragged fall
Am Em D C
A suicidal perch is now laid bare
Am B Em
To searching eyes and empty stares
Em
A fearful silence hits the crowd
D (sus2)
The air hangs heavy with the sound
Am Em D C
Of useless wings against the morning sky
Am B Em
As paper yields before their eyes
C
Oh, can you see him now?
D Em
A broken man without a dream
C
Oh, can you hear him now?
D Em
A futile laugh above the screams
Barclay James Harvest.Everyone is everybody else.1974.
