Verse:
E MajorE E5E5+ E6E6 E7E7 A augmentedA
When I was a little child, I once found a bird lying on the ground.
A minorAm E MajorE A augmentedA A minorAm
It would not ever fly, again.
E MajorE E5E5+ E6E6 E7E7 A augmentedA
I held the bird up in my hands, I shed my tears over the lovely song
A minorAm E MajorE A augmentedA A minorAm
that not longer could be heard.
Refrain:
C# minorC#m A augmentedA (2x)
Uhh...Never learn to fly
Verse:
E MajorE E5E5+ E6E6 E7E7 A augmentedA
With dirty hands I dug a hole and gently laid the bird to rest in soil:
A minorAm E MajorE A augmentedA A minorAm
A augmentedA wound in the tear stained mud.
E MajorE E5E5+ E6E6 E7E7
My tears wore rain as I revealed the secrets of a tree.
A augmentedA A minorAm E MajorE A augmentedA A minorAm
A augmentedA cross of bark to speak through wooden grains:
Refrain:
C# minorC#m A augmentedA (2x)
Uhh...Never learn to fly

I sang a song which I remembered my grandma used to sing

For me, when I was sick and laid in bed.

Then I cursed that day for showing me my own mortality
C# minorC#m B4 F#/Bb A augmentedA
For then I knew that all that lives turns cold.
A augmentedA BB BbmBbm F#F# F minorFm D#D# D#mD#m C#C#
Cold and dead...

A minorAm
though some day soon my son will maybe

Find the tree I cleansed of skin,
C minorCm
no chain-sling will ever climb it's rotten limbs.
C minorCm
And when the time has come for me to die,

I want to lie beside that bird.
