C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
I heard it was a myth
C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7                FF
When a baby bird that falls out of the nest
                        C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
Can't be touched by a human and be taken care of

Flocks, herds and colonies
C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7                FF
School for the fish, and gaggle for geese

Where will I go, when my tribe goes away?
Cmaj7Cmaj7 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7

Mama says we'll be okay

She will build us a future

And hang our clothes out on the line

They saw me sit alone
C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7              FF
Broken, that's what they call my home

So they sent me away
           C majorC
With my milk and my tray
Cmaj7Cmaj7 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7 C majorC
Ooh

The cafeteria

ate lunch with a lady in an office down the hall

Take this change, it's the same
      G+G
I'm not strange
 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
Yeah
C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7       C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
My bed was under the window
         FF
I wondered and willed

Do the stars care?

Will my wish repair our home?
