-6  6     5    3  -5
I  can't stand to fly 
-6   6    5  -5 -5
I'm not that naive 
-6   6    5  3   -5
I'm just out to find 
 -5  6  7   6   5  -3
The better part of me 

 5    5   -5  6   7      
I'm more than a bird 
 5    5   -5  6   7
I'm more than a plane 
 3    4    5   -6  6   5   -3 -6  6  5
More than some pretty face beside a train 
 5   -5  -5 5  6  -5  5
It's not easy  to be  me 

 -6   6   5  -5    -5
Wish that I could cry 
 -6   6 5 -5  -5
Fall upon my knees 
 -6  6  5  3   3 
Find a way to lie 
 5 5 -5   6    7    6 5   -3
about a  home I'll never see 
 5  5   -5    6  7
It may sound absurd 
 5     5  -5  6  7
But don't be naive 
-3 4  -6  6   5   -3   -6   6    5  
Even  Heroes have the right to bleed 
5  5  -5   6   7
I may be disturbed 
 5    5    -5   6  7
But won't you concede 
 3 5  -6  6   5   -3  -6    6   5
Even Heroes have the right to dream 
 5    5   -5 -5 5  6   -5     5
And it's not easy  to  be    me 


-3  -3  -4  4 5  6 -5   5   6
Up, up and away away  from me 
 -7  -8  8 -5 
It's    all right 
 5   -5  6    6    6     5 -3
You can all sleep sound tonight 
-3  -3  -3 3   3  -3  3  3
I'm not crazy or anything 

-6  6     5    3 -5
I can't stand to fly 
 6   7   6    5 -3
I'm not that naive 
 -6    6      5    3  -5
Men weren’t meant to ride 
 -5    6     7   6    5     -3
With clouds between their knees 
 5   5 -5  6  7
I'm  only  a man 
 5 5  5  -5   6    7
In a  silly  red sheet 
  3  3   3   -6  6  5  -3  -3   -6  6    5 
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street 
5 -5 6  7
Only a man 
 5 5  5 -5  6    7
In a funny red sheet 
 3   3   3   -6  6     5   -3  -6  6  5
Looking for special things inside of me 
 5    5  -5 5  6  -5  5
It's not easy  to be me
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
