Just watching the show

Over and over again

To leave his dead life behind

Bm Bm/A Bm/G#
He spends his evenings alone in his hotel room
A F#sus4 F#
Keeping his thoughts to himself, he'd be leaving soon

Wishing he was miles and miles away
Nothing in this world, nothing would make him stay

G A D xx0333 xx0434 E A

Since he was small
Had no luck at all
Nothing came easy to him
Now it was time
He'd made up his mind
"This could be my last chance"
His boss said to him, "Now listen boy!
You're always dreaming
You've got no real ambition, you won't get very far
Sammy boy, don't you know who you are?
Why can't you be happy at the Emerald Bar?"

So honey

Spread your wings and fly away
Fly away, far away
Spread your little wings and fly away
Fly away, far away
Pull yourself together
'Cos you know you should do better
That's because you're a free man
