Subject: If I Had Wings ... From: WyoWoman Date: 25 Sep 01 - 12:58 AM No, it's not a new song for Wizard of Oz, the Sequel. It's a song I knew years ago that for some reason bubbled up out of my subconscious, but not all the way up. I thought I had already asked about it here, but I couldn't find it anywhere in the digitrad or forum, so forgive the redundancy and repetition if I've spaced the information.
Here's what I know, and if you know more, please add it: F'anks, WW |

Subject: Lyr Add: IF I HAD WINGS (Yarrow/Yardley) From: Pene Azul Date: 25 Sep 01 - 02:19 AM Found here IF I HAD WINGS Yarrow/Yardley- Silver Dawn Music -ASCAP If I had wings no one would ask me should I fly The bird sings, no one asks why. I can see in myself wings as I feel them If you see something else, keep your thoughts to yourself, I'll fly free then. Yesterday's eyes see their colors fading away They see their sun turning to grey You can't share in a dream, that you don't believe in If you say that you see and pretend to be me You won't be then. How can you ask if I'm happy goin' my way? You might as well ask a child at play! There's no need to discuss or understand me I won't ask of myself to become something else I'll just be me! If I had wings no one would ask me should I fly The bird sings, and no one asks her why. I can see in myself wings as I feel them If you see something else, keep your thoughts to yourself, I'll fly free then. |

Also, instead of G on the |I can| you can play an Em and it gives it a bit of interest--only a matter of taste, though, John Hardly's chords are perfect-- |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: If I Had Wings ... (answered) From: WyoWoman Date: 27 Sep 01 - 12:12 AM BILL!!!! You came over to the Mudcat Side (the opposite of the Dark Side)!! Welcome! I'm so sorry I didn't go to Winfield. I had just had such a terrible week and with the news about the attacks on the World Trade Center continuing to unfold, I wasn't feelign very festive. So very sorry to be such piker. Next year ... Did you meet some other Mudcateers at Winfield? For those of you who don't know our new friend, you should get acquainted, particularly if you're ever going to be in Memphis. He took me to the biggest jam in Memphis, and to the smallest bar I've ever seen. He is a fine fellow. Bullmoose, have you been properly introduced to this questionable crew? IF not, I will do so immediately. WW/KC/PansyRue Twidgett |
