A Bird’s song
Verse
D A B
When I would play my song
G D A
You used to sing along.
D A B
I always seem to forget
G A D
How fragile are the very strong.
D A B
I'm sorry I can't steal you
G D A
I'm sorry I can't stay
D F#7 Bm
So I put band-aids on your knees
G A D
And watch you fly away
Chorus:
G Bm A D
I'm sending you away tonight
G Bm A
I'll put you on a bird's strong wing
G Bm A D
I'm saving you the best way I know how
G A D
I hope again one day to hear you sing
(same as above)
Verse:
D A B
You know we're not so far away
G D A
Get on a boat, get on a train
D A B
And if you ever think you're drowning
G A D
I'll try to slow the rain
D A B
In two years or so
G D A C#/A
Drop me a line, Write me a letter
D F#7 Bm
I hope to find you're doing better,
D7 G A D
better than today, better everyday
Chorus:
G Bm A D
I'm sending you away tonight
G Bm A
I'll put you on a bird's strong wing
G Bm A D
I'm saving you the best way I know how
G A Bm
I hope again one day to hear you sing
G Bm A D
I'm saving you the only way that I know how
G A Bm
I hope again one day to hear you sing

I hope again one day to see you bring your smile
G D
back around again
