As the Crow Flies — Tony Joe White
Chords and lyrics for As the Crow Flies by Tony Joe White (key of F#m).
Verse 1
Sounds best with power chords, sounds better if you can pick out the melody
while you're playing
[F#m] [F#m] [B] [B]
[F#m]As the crow flies, baby
Well I ain't too far from [A]you[A][B]
[F#m]As the crow flies, baby
Well I ain't too far from [A]you[A][B]
Yeah, but [B7]since I don't have wings
[A]Well I can't get home as fast as I want to[F#m]
Between the Verses it's just F#m
[F#m]Well, you don't know, baby
I've missed your sweet [A]caress[A][B]
[F#m]Well, you don't know, mama
I've missed your sweet caress, [A]oh [B]yeah[A]
Yeah, now [B7]when I'm in your lovin' arms
[A]Oh, I'm at my very best[F#m]
[F#m] [F#m] [F#m] [F#m]
[F#m]In a dream last night
Well I heard you call my [A]name[A][B]
[F#m]In a dream last night
Well I heard you call my [A]name[A][B]
Yeah, I took[B7] it as an omen
[A]And I jumped on the very [F#m]first freight train
[F#m]As the crow flies, baby
Well I ain't too far from you, [A]oh no[B] no[A]
[F#m]As the crow flies, mama
Well I ain't too far from [A]you[A][B]
Yeah, but [B7]since I don't have wings
[A]Well I can't get home as [F#m]fast as I want to
Outro is again just F#m
