Intro:
E MajorE
Spoken:
Birds fall from the window ledge above mine
Then they flap their wings at the last second
E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB
Verse:
E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE
You see, birds fall from the window ledge above mine
A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB
Then they flap their wings at the last second
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
I can see their dead weight
E MajorE A augmentedA
Just dropping like stones
BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB
Or small loaves of bread
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
Past my window all the time
E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE
But unless I get up
A augmentedA BB
Walk across the room
E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE
And peer down below
A augmentedA BB E MajorE
I
A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA
Don't see their last-second curves
BB E MajorE A augmentedA
Toward a horizontal flight
BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB
All these birds just falling from the ledge like stones
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
Now due to a construct in my mind
E MajorE A augmentedA BB
That makes their falling and their flight
E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA
Symbolic of my entire existence
BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB
It becomes important for me
E MajorE A augmentedA
To get up and see
BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE
Their last-second curves toward flight
A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA
It's almost as if my life would fall
BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB
Unless I see their ascent

Verse 2:
E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE
Birds fall from the window ledge above mine
A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB
