Key : C
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
C

[Verse 1]
---------------------
C                F                  C
Mama, dear mama, look in yonder tree
         G/B           Am        F               C
See that pretty little sparrow, alookin' back at me
                               F                C
She can soar above the clouds, way up in the sky
        G/B     Am           F                 C
She can fly away  from here, why, oh why, can't I?

[Verse 2]
---------------------
C                             F                      C
Daughter, dear daughter, I'll tell you something true
             G/B   Am       F                C
Remember Gran   Eliza? Well, every night she flew
              G/B          Am         Am/G    F
They tried to keep her down  but there    was nothing they could do

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
C          C              Am G/B C
 She could fly, she could fly
          F                      C           G
She could slip the bonds of Earth and rise so high
          C    F         C
She could fly across the river
              G/B Am   G
Her spirit in her hands
F                C          G                F   C
Searching, always searching for the promised land

[Verse 3]
---------------------
C                F                C
Mama, dear mama, mama tell me more
         G/B         Am             F
I feel a trembling in  my arms, I've never felt before
C C                        F             C
  Daughter, dear daughter, listen what I say
              G/B      Am        F
Your granny always told  me you'd feel that way some day
C                 G/B           Am    Am/G    F              C
 'Cause every time   she looked at you    she saw the oldtime ways

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
              C             Am G/B C
When we could fly, we could fly
         F                      C           G
We could slip the bonds of Earth and rise so high
         C    F         C
We could fly across the mountains
              G/B   Am  G
Together, hand   in hand
F                C          G                F
Searching, always searching for the promised land

[Verse 4]
---------------------
C                F                 C
Mama, dear mama, come and stand by me
         G/B          Am         F
I feel a lightness in my feet, a longing to be free
C                        F                C
 My heart it is ashakin' with an old, old song
           G/B       Am       F                 C
I hear the voices sayin' it's time for moving on

[Verse 5]
---------------------
C                                    F              C
 She took her mama by the hand, they rose up in the air
               G/B        Am        Am/G
They held each other tight  and then
    F               C
They flew away from there
               G/B        Am        Am/G    F               C
They held each other tight  and then    they flew away from there

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
           C               Am G/B C
They could fly, they could fly
           F                      C           G
They could slip the bonds of Earth and rise so high
           C     F        C
They could fly across the ocean
              G/B   Am
Together, hand   in hand
F                 C         G                F
Searching, always searching for the promised land
