[Verse 1]
N.C.                                         C Bb
Get aboard the silver bird, departing gate 19
N.C
Satisfy your Walter Mitty mind, tryin' out a dream
     F            C              Bb             F
Your sign is Capricorn and every corner of your mind
F                                C                 Bb
Says you'll remain my friend, my friend until your mine


[Chorus]
       F            Bb    F
Silver bird, fly my lady away
       F              C
Silver bird, take her over the bay
       F             Bb     F
Silver bird, give my lady a ride
    Bb         F                 C
And let her go see what's on the other side
       F            Bb    F
Silver bird, fly my lady away
       F       C          F
Pretty bird, today is the day


[Bridge]
     Gm
Lone rangers and strangers will knock at her door
    F#                          Db
But I know my babys' no baby no more


[Chorus]
       F#           B     F#
Silver bird, fly my lady away
       F#      Db         F# Db
Pretty bird, today is the day

[Verse 2]
N.C.                                                           C Bb
When you come home my crazy heart will greet those silver wings
N.C
Your pet dog will remember you, and I'll carry your things
      F#              Db           B                  F#
We'll catch a runnin' make-up, and you will look just fine
    F#                          Db                  B
And you'll remain my friend, my friend until you're mine


[Chorus]
       F#           B     F#
Silver bird, fly my lady away
       F#             Db
Silver bird, take her over the bay
       F#            B      F#
Silver bird, give my lady a ride
    B          F#                Db
And let her go see what's on the other side


[Chorus]
       F#           B     F#
Silver bird, fly my lady away
       F#             Db
Silver bird, take her over the bay
       F#            B      F#
Silver bird, give my lady a ride
    B          F#                Db
And let her go see what's on the other side...
