E Am
It was a couple days ago and I was thinking of rock and roll and how the years go by.
E Am
I wasn't sure just how we met, but it was something in her eyes that kept me lovin' her.
E Am
Good and bad runnin' through my life, I had no time to catch my flight, tryin' to be
there for you.
I wish I could be there all the time, but it seems that I am only there when you fall.
(Chorus)
G D Cm7
I wish I could fly like an eagle in the sky, to guild you the right way.
I would give you peace and harmony all night long....
I need you, I want you, I dream of you, maybe one day it'll all come true.
I dream of going to pick her up in that old Cadillac.
We drove down to the drive-in in the old part of town.
We stayed for the movie and talked about our lifes, under that beautiful summer sky.
(Chorus)
I wish I could fly like an eagle in the sky, to guild you the right way.
I would give you peace and harmony all night long, till the break of dawn.
I need you, I want you, I dream of you, maybe one day it'll all come true.
Repeat and Fade
I need you, I want you, I dream of you, maybe one day it'll all come true.
