Birdsong by Kina Grannis
Birdsong
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
Bb E
[Verse 1]
Bb E
You fell right into my hands
Bb E
I'll have you and hold you 'til I can’t
Bb E
You were bright and magic-eyed
Bb E
Far from home, but I was on your side
Bb E
And let you fly
[Chorus]
Bb
So that's goodbye
My eager friend
E
I'd have thought that we would have another morning
Bb
But so it goes
And so it ends
E
And all that I can do is hold a home within me
F# E Bb
Do you know I cried, I cried, I cried until I thought that I could die
[Verse 2]
Bb E
Tell us, tell us what you see
Bb E
Soaring high above humanity
Bb E
Do you see me, oh
[Chorus]
Bb
So that's goodbye
My eager friend
E
I'd have thought that we would have another morning
Bb
But so it goes
And so it ends
E
And all that I can do is hold a home within me
F# E Bb
Do you know I cried, I cried, I cried until I thought that I could die
[Verse 3]
Bb E
Tell us, tell us what you see
Bb E
Soaring high above humanity
Bb E
Do you see me, oh
Bb E
Do you see me, oh
Bb E
Do you see me, oh
Bb E
Do you see me, oh
Bb E
Do you see me, oh
Bb E
Do you see me, oh
Bb
Do you see me
