Born to Fly chords by Sara Evans

"Born to Fly" is the name of a popular Country song by Sara Evans, released in July 2000, which topped the country charts in January 2001. This was Evans' second #1 song, the first being "No Place That Far" from the year before. "Born to Fly" is an up-tempo song about a person wanting to expand their horizons and dreams of being somebody, and is tired of being stuck in the same place, and wants to get out "where the action is". The song makes analogies to a bird spreading its wings and flying to its new destination. The song is backed primarily with fiddles, and the album features a long instrumental part at the end of the song. The song is considered Sara Evans' signature song. The music video shows Evans portraying Dorothy, the main character from The Wizard of Oz motion picture from the early twentieth century. The video features many of the same story elements as the movie, such as a tornado, a wicked witch, and a little black dog. The video earned the Country Music Association Video of the Year award in 2001, Evans' first (and only as of 2008). The music video was ranked #34 on CMT's 100 Greatest Videos. Read more on Last.fm.
