Flying Silver Eagle Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Standing [D]at that pawn shop counter
Trying on the wedding rings
She said she needed silver
'Cause gold just turns her [A]green
I [D]counted [G]out [D]the twenties
And I laid the money [G]down
And we went straight to
[D]the David[A]son [D]courthouse
After three long [G]years to[D]gether
She found a [A]banker [D]man
She said she was thinking
[G]'bout her fu[D]ture
And gave me back that silver [A]band
I [D]had it [G]melted [D]down
So I could wear in on [G]a chain
Now it's a flying silver [D]eagle
that [A]used to be a [D]ring

[Verse 2]
I'd rather [G]have this silver eagle
Than [D]all that rich man's gold
[Bm]It's my one re[F#m]minder of
[G]A women turning c[A]old
Her [D]love lies [G]in his [D]money
And mines in a [Em]pair [D]of wing[G]s
On a flying silver [D]eagle that [A]used to be a ring
[D]

[Verse 3]
I couldn't put the [G]past be[D]hind me
So I put it [A]in [D]a song
That's how I [G]tell [D]the story
How that women did me [A]wrong
Now [D]I tour [G]across [D]the country
Riding high on the [G]wings
Of a flying silver [D]eagle that
[A]used to be a [D]ring

[Verse 4]
I'd rather [G]have this silver eagle
Than [D]all that rich man's gold
[Bm]It's my one re[F#m]minder of
A [G]women turning [A]cold
Her [D]love lies [G]in his [D]money
And mines in a pair [G]of wings
On a flying silver [D]eagle that [A]used
to be a [D]ring

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 5]
I met a [D]homeless man on Broadway
He was holding out his hand
He asked me [G]for [D]a dollar
Said he was once a banker [A]man
'Til that [D]lady [G]took his [D]money
I said man I feel your [G]pain
You might could use this silver [D]eagle
You know it [A]used to be a [D]ring
