BRIDGE:
His eyes seem so glazed, see the madman in his gaze
CHORUS:
I'll try and show the idea of the chorus, listen for the
strumming and chord slides. At the end go back to strumming
the F# power chord as in the intro.
|--4------------2------------7\6/7--6/7\6/7-etc-------6/7--9------|
Fly, on your way, like an eagle, fly as high as the
Sun, on your way, like an eagle, fly as high as the

F#m fast and end with A E F#m as in the intro.
