JOHN LEGEND | When You Can Fly Chords Guitar Piano and Lyrics

Frogs gonna leap

Gators gonna bite

A gray wolf pack is gonna rule the night

A mountain lion’s never been afraid of heights

But it’s better when you can fly

[?]

[?] gonna play

The rooster can cock-a-doodle-doo all day

Catfish can swim, but I bet they’d say

It’s better when you can fly

The view from the blue sky

It looks so good when you’re up high

The blues come ’round, they won’t get me down

I can make my escape

I’m not sly like a fox

Don’t sting like a bee

A grizzly won’t ever run away from me

I think of all the things they could never see

It’s better when you can fly

[Film Interlude]

The view from the blue sky

It looks so good when you’re up high

The blues come ’round, they won’t get me down

I can make my escape

I’m not sly like a fox

Don’t bite like a flea

A grizzly won’t ever run away from me

I think of all the things they could never see

It’s better when you can fly

Oh, the view from the blue sky

It looks so good when you’re up high

The blues come ’round, they won’t get me down

I can make my escape

Oh, everybody sings

But not like me

The air’s much better here above the trees

Look up in the sky, I’m a sight to see

It’s better when you can fly

Oh, the view from the blue sky

It looks so good when you’re up high

Oh, but when I’m down, won’t you come around?

Help me make my escape

No matter how high a crow can go

There’s gonna come a time when he’s brought down low

Oh, hit rock bottom, and I just don’t know

If it’s better when you can fly
