Eagles And Horses

Intro: Am

 Am                       Em         Am
Horses are creatures who worship the earth
      Am        Em         C
They gallop on feet of ivory
      F                       Am        F
Constrained by the wonder of dying and birth
     Am           Em            Am
The horses still run they are free

    Am                  Em         Am
My body is merely the shell of my soul
          Am           Em        C
But the flesh must be given its due
        F                     Am         F
Like a pony that carries its rider back home
        Am                  Em             Am
Like an old friend that's tried and been true

C                 G
I had a vision of eagles and horses
 F         Dm         Am            G
High on a ridge in a race with the wind
       F                  C  Bm      Am
Going higher and higher, faster and faster
   F           Am         F G     C    C Em Am
On eagles and horses I'm flying again

Am                  Em       Am
Eagles inhabit the heavenly heigths
       Am          Em        C
They know neither limit nor bound
             F                  Am           F
They're the guardian angels of darkness and light
      Am          Em         Am
They see all and hear every sound

     Am                   Em       Am
My spirit will never be broken or caught
         Am         Em          C
For the soul is a free-flying thing
        F                         Am           F
Like an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thought
    Am          Em      Am
To rise up on glorious wings

On eagles and horses I'm flying again

I'm flying again, I'm flying again

    Am                  Em         Am
My body is merely the shell of my soul
          Am           Em        C
But the flesh must be given its due
        F                     Am          F
Like a pony that carries its master back home
