and I wonder if she looks down as she goes on by,

             C                 G         E  E7
well, she's flyin' so free and easy in the sky,

             Am   Dm                Am
lord look at me, I'm rooted like a tree

           C              G       E          E7         Am

Now the sun, it comes up and it lights up the day,

to the east and to the west, he meets God everyday,

Lord look at me, I'm rooted like a tree...

Now I had a woman, Lord she lived down by the mine

she ain't never seen the sun Oh, Lord, never stopped crying,

then one day my woman, up and died,

Lord she up and died now....oh lord she up and died now

Hey, she wanted to fly and the only way to fly is die, die, die.....


Well, there's a high flyin' bird, flyin' way up in the sky....

and I wonder if she looks down as she goes on by,

well, she's flyin' so free and easy in the sky,

Hey, lord look at me, I'm rooted like a tree

Got those sit down , can't cry, Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues

Got those sit down , can't cry, Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues

Hey, Yeah, Hey, Yeah....
