FALL OR FLY
Lyrics by Conni Leigh James, music by Chris Dean
No capo (capo 1 with half step tuning)
[Verse 1]
There’s a party going on below me
Rolex crowd and everyone knows me
It’s what I wanted since those teenage dreams
Tonight I couldn’t wait to quit that scene
Whoooooaa, Whoooaa
A dazzling future on the far horizon
An emerald city that I’d set my sites on
The peace I sacrificed along the way
Exchanged for empty nights and debts to pay
[Chorus 1]
High in the August night
Up on the roof between midnight and the moonlight
Climbed hard to reach the sky
Now will I fall ……. or fly? (Fall or fly….)
[Music interlude]
[Verse 2]
Now I’m poised here with the prize I reached for
Contemplating what to toss or keep or
Chase full blown into the aftermath
Or click my heels and take an unknown path
[Chorus 2]
High in the August night
Up on the roof between midnight and the moonlight
All the scars and tears I’ve cried
Now will I fall or fly?
[Chorus 3]
High in the August night
Up on the roof between midnight and the moonlight
Climbed hard to reach the sky
Now will I fall ….. or fly? (Fall or fly….)
[Music interlude]
[Chorus 4]
High in the August night
Up on the roof between midnight and the moonlight
Climbed hard to reach the sky
Now will I fall or fly?
[Chorus 5]
High in the August night
Up on the roof between midnight and the moonlight
Climbed hard to reach the sky
Now will I fall or fly?
