Icarus Ascending

"icarus ascending" by dan fogelberg on "full circle" 2002 capo on 1st fret ( only if you want to match the key of the recording ) the F#7 and A ( add9 ) chords are just the E form moved up 2 and 5 frets 044300 E F#7 soaring alone upon a threatening wind 077600 A ( add9 ) E just fix your eyes on the horizon F#7 cut off from everything you’ve known or have been Aadd9 E i shouldn’t think it’s so surprisin’ F#7 spiralling upward on a freshening lift Aadd9 E reaching the realms of fleet apollo F#7 you have been given the most sacred of gifts Aadd9 E you must be fearless now and follow Chorus : Aadd9 E don’t look down , though your heart may be weary Aadd9 E don’t look down , though your wings are on fire Aadd9 E don’t look down , though the night may seem endless D Aadd9 there’s a reason you’re flying this fast and this far D Aadd9 E may your faith be your strength and your love be your guiding star venturing further than the lenght of your sight out past the reach of your beginings there is a gamble in each proud act of flight but the losses pale before the winnings circling and diving with this freedom you’ve found illusion blows apart and scatters there is no darkness in this place that we’re bound love is the only thing that matters repeat Chorus
