Fly Away

You were scared as hell to take the highway

You barely knew how to drive

Your folks said to do it their way

But you had Nashville on your mind

In a town of all the dreamers

All the poets and the honky tonk kings

You'll run into non-believers who will try to clip your wings

If you can hear me from where you are

Just know it's gonna get better

I hear the prayer that you prayed

You'll finally find a way to fly away

You'll finally find a way to fly away

Mmm-hmm

Mmm-hmm

You'll almost make it on the first try

They'll play you on the radio

You'll even make it onto late night

But then watch it all go up in smoke

If you can hear me from where you are

Just know it's gonna get better

I hear the prayers that you pray

You'll finally find a way to fly away

You'll finally find a way to fly away

Mmm-hmm

Mmm-hmm

You'll make your way back to Nashville

Feel like you're lost in the weeds

Turns out to get to where you wanted

That you are all that you'll ever need

So if you can hear me from where you are

Just know it's gonna get better

I hear the prayer that you pray

We'll finally find a way to fly away

We'll finally find a way to fly away

Mmm-hmm

Mmm-hmm
