Am           G
Icarus flew too near the sun
F#m                F
into the blue his red wax did run
    Am                    G
He fell to the earth and sealed the scroll
     F#m                  F
The daredevil angels our luck would unfold

[Chorus]
  F          D
They are the only ones
  F        D
The chosen only ones
  F          D                   Am
They are the only ones who are free

[Verse 2]
      Am                G
Half-human half-bird ascending so high
     F#m                  F
No whisper is heard from deep in the sky
    Am                        G
On wings as they climb, they beat and they soar
   F#m                    F
through space and time towards heaven's door

[Chorus]
  F          D
They are the only ones
  F        D
The chosen only ones
  F          D                   Am
They are the only ones who are free

[Verse 3]
     Am         G
In chariots of fury and flame
    F#m                F
We head for above to stake out our claim
      Am            G
With radioscopes, electronic eyes
     F#m                  F
We scan for our hopes in different skies

[Chorus]
  F          D
They are the only ones
  F        D
The chosen only ones
  F          D                   Am
They are the only ones who are free
