The Way I Feel Acoustic chords by Gordon Lightfoot

Gordon Lightfoot - The Way I Feel (Acoustic)


CAPO: 2nd Fret



INTRO:: Dm  Am7  Dm  Am7  Dm

VERSE 1:
     Am7      Dm
The way I feel is like a robin
         Am7       Dm
Whose babes have flown to come no more
        Am7      Dm
like a tall oak tree alone and crying
          Am7          Dm
When the birds have flown and the nest is bare

VERSE 2:
Dm     Am7       Dm
Now a woman Lord, is like a young bird
         Am7          Dm
And the tall oak tree is a young man's heart
     Am7          Dm
Among its boughs you'll find her nesting
Dm         Am7         Dm
When the nights are cool, she's warm and dry


VERSE 3:
       Am7        Dm
Your coat of green, it will protect her
        Am7         Dm
Her wings will grow, your love will too
      Am7       Dm
But all too soon your mighty branches
       Am7            Dm
Will cease to hold her. She'll fly from you


VERSE 4:
Dm      Am7      Dm
Now the way I feel is like a robin
         Am7       Dm
Whose babes have flown to come no more
        Am7      Dm
Like a tall oak tree alone and crying
          Am7          Dm
When the birds have flown and the nest is bare
          Am7          Dm
