Em             F Em
The sun came up
Em              F Em
Up above the sea
C             Am
The streaming clouds
     F
Tore into my tranquility

[Verse 2]

Em           F Em
Out my window

Em         F Em
I could see
C           Am
A bird drop down
       F
On the branches of my apple tree

[Chorus]

G    D/F#             Em7
Everyday the bluebird comes down
    F                G
And stares at me for hours
             D/F#                Em7
Can't figure out if he brings me luck
           F                 Em
Or if he's trying to tear me down

[Verse 3]

Em             F Em
I bought a rifle
Em                   F Em
With a bushnell scope
C           Am
Knowing the answer would be
               F
To see if he's calm or frightful

[Verse 4]

Em             F Em
The sun rose up
Em          F Em
Over the sea
C                Am
I staked out and waited
        F
Like so many gunmen before me

[Chorus]

G    D/F#             Em7
Everyday the bluebird comes down
    F                G
And stares at me for hours
             D/F#                Em7
Can't figure out if he brings me luck
           F                 Em
Or if he's trying to tear me down

[Verse 5]

Em                F Em
He saw my gun, he stared
Em                     F Em
Right into my eyes, I fired
C        Am
His body exploded
    F
And feathers fell all over my lawn
