Verse 1:
G Bm
You got to leave me now, you got to go alone,
G Bm
You got to chase a dream, one that's all your own

Before it slips away.
G Bm
When you're flyin' high, take my heart along,
G Bm
I'll be the harmony to every lonely song
A G
That you learn to play.
Chorus 1:
G D G D
When you're soarin' through the air, I'll be your solid ground
G D A Bm
Take every chance you dare, I'll still be there

When you come back down,

When you come back down.

Verse 2:
G Bm
I'll keep lookin' up, awaitin' your return,
G Bm
My greatest fear will be that you will crash and burn,
A G
And I won't feel your fire.
G Bm
I'll be the other hand that always holds the line
G Bm
Connectin' in between your sweet heart and mine,
A G
I'm strung out on that wire.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official NICKEL CREEK tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
