[Verse 1]
Cm
Man and machine and nothing there in between
         Bb                       Cm
A flying circus and a man from Prussia
Cm
The sky and a plane, this man commands his domain
            Bb                          Cm
The western front and all the way to Russia


[Pre-chorus]
Eb               Bb                  Cm
    Death from above, you're under fire
     Eb          Bb                 Cm
Stained red as blood, he's roaming higher

Ab            Bb            Eb        Gm     Cm
    Born a soldier from the horseback to the skies
Ab                   Bb            G
    That’s where the legend will arise---    (ABRUPT STOP)

N.C.
And he's flying -


[Chorus]

Cm          Bb
Higher, the king of the sky
     Cm                       Bb
He's flying too fast and he’s flying too high
Cm         Bb
Higher, an eye for an eye
    Cm                Bb
The legend will never die


[Verse 2]

Cm
First to the scene he is a lethal machine
            Bb                    Cm
It's bloody April and the tide is turning
Cm
Fire at will it is the thrill of the kill
          Bb                         Cm
Four in a day shot down with engines burning


[Pre-chorus]

Eb              Bb                 Cm
    Embrace the fame, red squadron leader
Eb               Bb              Cm
    Call out his name, Rote kampflieger

Ab          Bb             Eb      Bb        Cm
     In the game to win, a gambler rolls the dice
Ab     Bb              G
Eighty allies paid the price--- (ABRUPT STOP)

N.C.
And he's flying


[Chorus]

Cm          Bb
Higher, the king of the sky
     Cm                       Bb
He's flying too fast and he’s flying too high
Cm         Bb
Higher, an eye for an eye
    Cm                Bb
The legend will never die
