F       G        Am
You're the closest thing to running
F       G     Am
With my shoes untied
        F      G          Am
Took my wings out of the closet
        F       G      C
And you handed me the sky


[Chorus]
       F         G
Like a bird or a plane
   Am   G       F
Or Superman himself
           C                 G          F      G      C
You're the closest thing to flying that I have ever felt


[Verse 2]
  F       G      Am
I didn't see you coming
     F      G      Am
Like water on the street
    F        G     Am
You blew in like a feather
      F          G        C
And I dropped a thousand feet


[Chorus]
         F             G
Like the trail from a star
     Am     G     F
Or a penny in a well
           C                 G           F      G      C
You're the closest thing to falling that I have ever felt


[Bridge]
    F   G        Am       G    F
And oh, I was a worn out, hallelujah
C    G
Hallelujah


[Chorus]
      F         G
By a sleight of hand
     Am      G        F
You saved me from myself
           C                 G           F      G      Am G
You're the closest thing to magic that I have ever felt
       F         G
Like a bird or a plane
   Am   G       F
Or Superman himself
           C                 G          F      G      C
You're the closest thing to flying that I have ever felt
