If Souls Have Wings by Jody Soland
If Souls Have Wings
Capo:no capo
Am
There's a bird in the wood,
G
lying still as she could
F
waiting for death
E
to come.
Am
She has a wound to her heart,
G
a wing badly broken,
F
she lay in her blood
E
and she sings:
Am
If souls have wings
G
I'll be flying again.
F E
Soon I'll be flying
Am
again.
Am
And now the forest trees
G
are dropping their leaves,
F
a blanket of warmth
E
for the night.
Am
And a star shines down,
G
into her eyes,
F
she remembers the light
E
and she sings:
Am
If souls have wings
G
I'll be flying again.
F E
Soon I'll be flying
Am
again.
C
Only God knows
G
to come for those
F
with wings that will carry
E
them home.
C
And you know, not when
G
you'll be flying again.
F E
Soon, you'll be flying
Am
again.
Am
For the night seems long
G
as she waits for the dawn,
F
and takes in the last
E
of her breath.
Am
So, she tries to hold strong,
G
but what if she's wrong,
F
and there's nothing that comes
E
after death.
Am
Still she lifts her head high
G
reaches up to the sky,
F
And with one final cry,
E
she sings:
Am
If souls have wings
G
I'll be flying again.
F E
Soon I'll be flying
Am
again.
C
Only God knows
G
to come for those
F
with wings that will carry
E
them home.
C
And you know, not when
G
you'll be flying again.
F E
Soon, you'll be flying
Am
again.
Am
When her song was sung,
G
a silence hung,
F
and her body lay lifeless
E
and cold.
Am
Then the forest trees,
G
bowed to the breeze,
F
that came for the little
E
bird's soul.
Am
And with one mighty breath
G
she awoke from her death,
F
to fly toward the sky
E
and sing:
Am
My soul has wings and
G
I'm flying again.
F E
Look at me flying
Am
again.
C
Only God knows
G
to come for those
F
with wings that will carry
E
them home.
C
And you know, not when
G
you'll be flying again.
F E
Soon, you'll be flying
Am
again.
