Expecting To Fly Tab

by Buffalo Springfield


One of the best songs ever, it first grabbed my attention on the film Fear and Loathing
in Las Vegas (also an amazing book!)



                               
There you stood on the edge of your feather
               
Expecting to fly
                  
While I laughed, I wondered whether 
                  
I could wave goodbye
                   
Knowin' that you'd gone
                  
By the summer it was healing
                
We had said goodbye
                   
All the years we'd spent with feeling
             
Ended with a cry
                
Babe,       ended with a cry
                
Babe,       ended with a cry

           
I tried so hard to stand
                                
As I stumbled and fell to the ground 
             
So hard to laugh as I fumbled
                            
And reached for the love I found
                
Knowin' it was gone
               
If I never lived without you
                 
Now you know I'd die
           
If I never said I loved you
                 
Now you know I'd try
                    
Babe,       now you know I'd try
              
Babe,       now you know I'd try
  
Babe

Enjoy,
