[Intro] E Bm D A
[Primera Parte]
E Bm
I think of you much more than
D A
I would like to admit that I do before strangers
E
But there you are
Bm
Whistling through the trees again
D
Rustling trough the leaves my friend
A E Bm D7M A
A feather on my pillow lets me know that you're near
[Segunda Parte]
E Bm
I remember the night that you arrived
D
December maybe '95
A E
Your hair and your breath smelled of John Player Specials
Bm
A stranger who I learned to love
D
A friend when really no one was
A
My Daedalus, my wings to fly
E Bm D7M A
Why'd you leave me behind?
[Estribillo]
E Bm
My beautiful crow
D A
And all those black feathers perched deep in my soul
E Bm D7M A
Won't let me, let you go
[Tercera Parte]
E Bm D
I never really thanked you for all the light
A
You brought into my mother's eyes
E
So many others tried
Bm
Her sadness since the day you left
D
She will not get out of bed
A E Bm D7M A
She stares out the window, smokes a black pack of JPS
[Cuarta Parte]
E Bm D
I was out on St. Paul's when I heard about your fall
A E
Walking with Caroline, she burns smokes from time to time
Bm
I walked home alone that night
D
I could feel you when I closed my eyes
A E Bm D7M A
I looked up into the night and watched black feathers fall from the sky
[Pre-Estribillo]
E Bm D
I think of you much more than I'm allowed to admit
A E
But I do, I still do
[Estribillo]
Bm
My beautiful crow
D A
And all those black feathers perched deep in my soul
E Bm D7M A
Won't let me, let you go
[Puente]
E Bm
I have tried to push you down
D7M
I have tried to cut you out
A
You're rattling your cage
E
I'm rattling my cage
Bm
I have tried to drown you out
D7M
Drink till I don't hear the sound
A
The song's still the same
E
The song's still the same
[Estribillo]
Bm D
My beautiful crow, and all those black feathers
A
Perched deep in my soul
E Bm D7M A
Won't let me, let you go
[Final] E Bm D7M A E
