Songbird
By Drew Kennedy
6/26/2010
D D/F#
She laughs like she cries and cries like the sky
G D
Is about to be earthwardly bound
D D/F#
You’d think that she died one tear at a time
G A
And her time is about to run out
D D/F#
Flying from you is the first thing she’ll do
G D
just to see if you’ll chase her around
G D
She laughs like she cries so imagine the high
A D
I could catch when that girl touches down.
Chorus 1:
G
She don’t know why
Bm
she don’t know why
Em Em/F# G
songbirds can’t help but to fly
A D
And she don’t know why
She sings like a bird has never been heard
while it’s resting its wings on the ground
But high in a tree when she’s just out of reach
you can hear her impossible sound
Like a voice from above reminds you her love
is a live you should never have found
She sings like a bird and I never deserve
to hear what she was singing about.
Chorus
Bridge:
Bm Bm/A G D
Wings don’t need a reason for coming or leaving they don’t need a reason to fly
Bm Bm/A G A
They’re just made for healing the man to start beating, she ordered them up to the sky
Chorus 2:
I don’t know why
I don’t know why
I let her take to the sky
Without saying goodbye
Songbirds just fly
