  • I’ll Fly Away (January 10, 2025) PDF ~ MP3

The MP3 is set to play three verses. When you hear the count-in, you’ll panic a little because it feels really fast, but the notes are long and so you should be fine. I’ve been teaching a friend a little banjo and so you’ll probably be getting more old-school melodies from the world where shoes are optional. This is a nice song and sounds great on harmonica. You can play it with diatonic or chromatic.

Lyrics

  • Some bright morning when this life is over, I’ll fly away. To a home on God’s celestial shore. I’ll fly away. I’ll fly away oh glory. I’ll fly away. When I die hallelujah by and by. I’ll fly away.
  • When the shadows of this life have grown, I’ll fly a way. Like a bird from prison bars has flown. I’ll fly away. I’ll fly away oh glory. I’ll fly away. When I die hallelujah by and by. I’ll fly away.
  • Just a few more weary days and then, I’ll fly away. To a world where joys shall never end. I’ll fly away. I’ll fly away oh glory. I’ll fly away. When I die hallelujah by and by. I’ll fly away.
