Old Owl by Katie Costello
Old Owl
Intro: D Bm7
D Bm7
You are one hundred thousand years old
D
You know everything ever been told
Bm7
You can map the globe in a millisecond, can't you?
D Bm7
You are five thousand leagues under the sea
D
You see everything in sight
Bm7
You don't need binoculars; you have your eyes
G A Bm D
If you had hope would you feel stronger?
G A Bm D
If you knew how would you sleep longer?
G A Bm F#m
If you did not fear what you fear most,
G A Bm
Would you feel anything at all?
G A Bm F#m
Would you see anything all?
G A D
Would you feel anything at all?
D Bm7
You are an old owl sitting in the treetops
D
Looking at the housetops, you are in the know
Bm7
Watching newcomers come and go, come and go
D Bm7
You are all alone, cooped up inside
D
Cold by the fireplace's haunting gold size
Bm7
You are dwarfed by your own self-loathing, ambitious tendencies
G A Bm D
If you had hope would you feel stronger?
G A Bm D
If you knew how would you sleep longer?
G A Bm F#m
If you did not fear what you fear most,
G A Bm
Would you feel anything at all?
G A Bm F#m
Would you see anything all?
G A
Would you feel anything at all?
Bm A
We all hide from our minds
G Bbdim7
When the lamplight goes out and dims
Bm A G Bbdim7
We all try to de-rust the hinges squeaking deep inside
(play nothing)
Rest now while you're still alive
You will rest more in the afterlife
D
I can't catch you, and you don't want me to
D Bm7
You read those books all alone
D
Looking for the home you never owned
Bm7
You can be whatever you need to be
D
Don't let that bomb explode, like in the Twilight Zone
Bm7 D
Your glasses are still intact, you know
