G           Em    C            D7
Frogs gonna leap, gators gonna bite
G           Em    C            D7
A grey wolf pack is gonna rule the night
G                 Em          G7        Em
A mountain lion's never been afraid of heights
         A7          D7        G
But it's better when you can fly


[Verse]
G             Em   C            D7
Bunnies gonna hop, otters gonna play
G               Em            C      D7
The rooster can cock-a-doodle-do all day
G           Em         G7         Em
Catfish can swim but I bet they'd say
     A7          D7      G
It's better when you can fly


[Chorus]
        C             G
Oh, the view from the blue sky
   C                         G
It looks so good when you're up high
    C                             G       Em
The blues come 'round, they won't get me down
      A7         D
I can make my escape


[Verse]
         G         Em
I'm not sly like a fox
       C           D7
Don't sting like a bee
  G             Em        C        D7
A grizzly won't ever run away from me
  G                Em                G7    Em
I think of all the things they could never see
     A7          D7      G
It's better when you can fly


[Chorus]
        C             G
Oh, the view from the blue sky
   C                         G
It looks so good when you're up high
    C                             G       Em
The blues come 'round, they won't get me down
      A7         D
I can make my escape

[Verse]
    G         Em
Oh, everybody sings
    C        D7
But not like me
    G          Em            C       D7
The air's much better here above the trees
G              Em          G7       Em
Look up in the sky, I'm a sight to see
     A7          D7      G
It's better when you can fly

[Chorus]
        C             G
Oh, the view from the blue sky
   C                         G
It looks so good when you're up high
        C                        G    Em
Oh, but when I'm down, won't you come around?
        A7       D
Help me make my escape

[Outro]
    G         Em       C       D7
No matter how high a crow can go
         G            Em              C           D7
There's gonna come a time when he's brought down low
G              Em          G7       A7
Oh, hit rock bottom, and I just don't know
         A7          D7      G
If it's better when you can fly
