Chords with lyrics
Verse:
DmDm
Do you want to follow me indoors
A augmentedA
If the elevator be my floor
DmDm
There's a lonely blackbird on the telephone wire
C majorC
He's there most days
DmDm
If we don't have time for everything
A augmentedA
Let's at least sit quietly with him
DmDm G+G A augmentedA
Just long enough to notice when he flies away because he always flies away
Verse:
DmDm
And tomorrow everything will change
A augmentedA
That's what all our teachers used to say
DmDm C majorC
We don't need to wonder if the rows on our face will turn to grey
DmDm
But since we know the movements of the stars
A augmentedA
We know exactly where we are
DmDm G+G
And we'll be together when the leaves are acting strange
A augmentedA
We'll watch them fly away
Bridge:
DmDm
They always fly away
DmDm
They always fly away
DmDm
They always fly away
Verse:
DmDm
There's a mountain underneath the clouds
A augmentedA
There's a heaven underneath us now
DmDm C majorC
Can you make out the diamonds on the edge of the sea from where you lay
DmDm
There's a blackbird sitting on a line
A augmentedA
And we're all here navigating time
DmDm G+G A augmentedA
Let's watch him long enough until he flies away... they always fly away
DmDm
