I Saw A Bird Fly Away

INTRO: F

              G      Am    Em
I asked the habitual party goer
F        G        C
Just how high she thought she'd get
F     G          Am      Em
And I asked the ethereal girls
   F         G        C
If they were floating yet


CHORUS:
    F    G         Am           Em
And so I asked the light of the day
F           G        Am Em
What's this rush for heaven
    F       G        Am   Em
And I saw a bird fly away__
    F           G    C      F  
And I could not ask again
C    F  C



    F       G       Am      Em
The tabloid tainted actress knows
    F       G      C
The myth of higher ground
    F         G        Am        Em
The thing she got from playing a nun
    F        G         C
She got from sleeping around

He fell in the mud and
F           C
He became enlightened
F C     Am     C        F   C
I wonder who's laughing now


    F         G       Am   
And I've been running uphill, 
   Em
panting
F        G      C
Punching at the air
F        G           Am         Em
Fighting what's been pushing me down
     F     G      C
Like I can see it there


CHORUS:
    F    G         Am           Em
And so I asked the light of the day
F           G        Am Em
What's this rush for heaven

And I saw a bird fly away__
      F         G    C
And I could not ask again


    F     G        Am     
And I saw all this climbing, 
   Em
climbing
F       G        C
Just as far from heaven
    F       G        Am   Em
And I saw a bird fly away__
      F       G        C
And I started climbing again
