Chords with lyrics
Gordon Lightfoot - The Way I Feel (Acoustic)
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO:: DmDm Am7Am7 DmDm Am7Am7 DmDm
VERSE 1:
Am7Am7 DmDm
The way I feel is like a robin
Am7Am7 DmDm
Whose babes have flown to come no more
Am7Am7 DmDm
like a tall oak tree alone and crying
Am7Am7 DmDm
When the birds have flown and the nest is bare
VERSE 2:
DmDm Am7Am7 DmDm
Now a woman Lord, is like a young bird
Am7Am7 DmDm
And the tall oak tree is a young man's heart
Am7Am7 DmDm
Among its boughs you'll find her nesting
DmDm Am7Am7 DmDm
When the nights are cool, she's warm and dry
VERSE 3:
Am7Am7 DmDm
Your coat of green, it will protect her
Am7Am7 DmDm
Her wings will grow, your love will too
Am7Am7 DmDm
But all too soon your mighty branches
Am7Am7 DmDm
Will cease to hold her. She'll fly from you
VERSE 4:
DmDm Am7Am7 DmDm
Now the way I feel is like a robin
Am7Am7 DmDm
Whose babes have flown to come no more
Am7Am7 DmDm
Like a tall oak tree alone and crying
Am7Am7 DmDm
When the birds have flown and the nest is bare
Am7Am7 DmDm
