G                                                         C                      G                                             C
 It must have been cold there in my shadow     To never have sunlight on your face
Am                                   D                                            Am                                        D             B7
 You were content to let me shine; that's your way.  You always walked a step behind
 
So I was the one with all the glory     While you were the one with all the strain
A beautiful face without a name; for so long     A beautiful smile to hide the pain

Em                   C                                 G  D        Em                   C                        G   D
 Did you ever know that you're my hero,       And everything I would like to be
Em          C                       G   D      C                        D                            G
 I can fly higher than an eagle     For you are the wind beneath my wings
 

It might have appeared to go unnoticed.  But I've got it all here in my heart
I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it.   I would be nothing without you

 Chorus x2

                     C                                          G                                  C                     D
Aaahhh, the wind beneath my wings    Fly, fly, fly away, you let me fly so high
        G                                                            C                                           D
Ooh fly, fly, fly higher than the stars    So high I almost touched the sky
           G                                     C                           D                          G
Thank you, thank you, thank god for you the wind beneath my wings
