Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu “Expecting to Fly” dari Buffalo Springfield:

D                                    Am
There you stood on the edge of your feather
G                    A
Expecting to fly
D                        Am
While I laughed, I wondered whether
G                        A D
I could wave goodbye
G                              C
Knowin' that you'd gone
Dm                    G
By the summer it was healing
C                           F
We had said goodbye
Dm                          G
All the years we'd spent with feeling
C                      F
Ended with a cry
Fmaj7 Cmaj7               F
Babe, ended with a cry
Fmaj7 Cmaj7               D
Babe, ended with a cry

D              Am
I tried so hard to stand
          G                                     A
As I stumbled and fell to the ground
D                Am
So hard to laugh as I fumbled
           G                                A D
And reached for the love I found
G                       C
Knowin' it was gone
Dm            G
If I never lived without you
C                             F
Now you know I'd die
Dm            G
If I never said I loved you
C                             F
Now you know I'd try
Fmaj7 Cmaj7                    F
Babe, now you know I'd try
Fmaj7 Cmaj7                F
Babe, now you know I'd try
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Babe
