Death Of A Hummingbird by Jack Barksdale
Death Of A Hummingbird
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 2nd fret
INTRO:
G D C G
VERSE:
Am G
You looked at me with promise
Am G
You laughed with me at dawn
Am G
Shook your head in silence
D
When the pain became too strong
Am G
You whispered words of loneliness
Am G
Time was frozen in your stare
Am G
And like the death of a hummingbird
D G G
It was too much to bear
CHORUS:
Bm C
My mind circles memories
Am D
Of a young love thrown to the fire
Bm C
The years how swift they come
Am D D
They have just like the hours
INSTRUMENTAL:
Am G Am G Am G D
Am G Am G Am G D G G
VERSE:
Am G
I reach for love in empty spaces
Am G
Haunted by your ghost
Am G
Blinded by the clouds that reside
D
Where our love used to roam
Am G
These hands are tanned and weathered
Am G
My eyes are confused and dim
Am G
On the sunny side of a rainy morning
D G G
Sorrow fades to sin
CHORUS:
Bm C Am
I grasp on to these melodies of the songs
D
That when I sung
Bm C
Like the leaves of a dapping tree
Am D D
They must fall down to the sun
INSTRUMENTAL:
G Am C G D G
C D G
VERSE:
Am G
Death sits in the corner
Am G
It's gaze cuts through my soul
Am G
I turn my back in distasteful wrath
D D
There's no sense in letting go
Am G
You whispered words of loneliness
Am G
Time's frozen in your stare
Am G
And like the death of a hummingbird
D G D G
It was too much to bear
