(Intro)
C G Am F C G Am F
[VERSE]
C G
I can’t stand to fly
Am F
I’m not that naïve
C G
I’m just out to find
Am F
The better part of me
C G
I’m more than a bird, I’m more than a plane
Am F
I’m more than some pretty face beside a train
C G F C
It’s not easy to be me
[VERSE]
C G
I wish that I could cry
Am F
Fall upon my knees
C G
Find a way to lie
Am F
‘Bout a home I’ll never see
C Cmaj7
It may sound absurd but don’t be naïve
Am F
Even heroes have the right to bleed
C Cmaj7
I may be disturbed but won’t you concede
Am F
Even Heroes have the right to dream
C G F C Cmaj7
And it’s not easy to be me
Am G C Dm Am
Up, up and away, away from me
D7
Well, it’s alright
C D7
You can all sleep sound tonight
F G
I’m not crazy or anything
(Chorus)
C G
I can’t stand to fly
Am F
I’m not that naïve
C G
Men weren’t meant to ride
Am F
With clouds between their knees
C G
I’m only a man in a silly red sheet
Am F
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
C G
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Am F
Looking for special things inside of me
F C Cmaj7 Am F
Inside of me, inside of me
F C Cmaj7 Am F
Inside of me, inside of me
C G
I’m only a man in a funny red sheet
Am F
I’m only a man looking for her dream
C G
I’m only a man in a funny red sheet
Am F
It’s not easy
C G Am F
It’s not easy to be me
Lyrics
I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
I’m just out to find
The better part of me
I’m not that naive
I’m just out to find
The better part of me
I’m more than a bird, I’m more than a plane
I’m more than some pretty face beside a train
And it’s not easy to be me
I’m more than some pretty face beside a train
And it’s not easy to be me
I wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I’ll never see
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I’ll never see
It may sound absurd, but don’t be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed, but won’t you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream
And it’s not easy to be me
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed, but won’t you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream
And it’s not easy to be me
Up, up and away, away from me
Well, it’s all right, you can all sleep sound tonight
I’m not crazy or anything
Well, it’s all right, you can all sleep sound tonight
I’m not crazy or anything
I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
Men weren’t meant to ride
With clouds between their knees
I’m not that naive
Men weren’t meant to ride
With clouds between their knees
I’m only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
Inside of me
Inside me
Inside me
Inside of me
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
Inside of me
Inside me
Inside me
Inside of me
I’m only a man
In a funny red sheet
I’m only a man
Looking for a dream
In a funny red sheet
I’m only a man
Looking for a dream
I’m only a man
In a funny red sheet
And it’s not easy
In a funny red sheet
And it’s not easy
It’s not easy to be me
