C Cmaj7
I heard it was a myth
C Cmaj7                               F
When a baby bird that falls out of the nest
                                               C Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
Can't be touched by a human and be taken care of

School for the fish, and gaggle for geese
                                      C
Where will I go, when my tribe goes away?

Her class is at night, her work in the day

She will build us a future

And hang our clothes out on the line

One hundred pennies in a ziplock bag

Takе this change, it's the same

I'm not strangе

♫ Verse 4:
C Cmaj7
They saw me sit alone
C Cmaj7                           F
Broken, that's what they call my home

So they sent me away
                      C
With my milk and my tray
Cmaj7 C Cmaj7 C
Ooh

♫ Verse 5:

The cafeteria

ate lunch with a lady in an office down the hall
Cmaj7 C Cmaj7
Ooh

One hundred pennies in a ziplock bag, oh

I'm not strange

Yeah
C Cmaj7              C Cmaj7
My bed was under the window
                 F
I wondered and willed

Do the stars care?
                          C
Will my wish repair our home?
