I envy the birds
               D
High up in the trees
                    F#m
They live out their lives
             C#
So purposefully

           E
I envy the spiders
                  D
The squirrels and seeds
                    F#m
They all find their way
        C#
Automatically

            E                D      F#m
But in this handmade heaven, I come alive
A                  D          E
Blue birds forever colour the sky
        F#m      A       E             D
In this handmade heaven, we forget the time
        F#m       A       E       D
'Cause birds of a feather fly together

          E
I carry along
            D
A feel of unease
             F#m
I want to belong
                      C#
Like the birds in the trees

            E
I sit on my own
              D
Look over the town
                F#m
The skyscrapers glow
                        C#
Like they'll never fall down

            E                D
But in this handmade heaven, it's paradise
A                  D          E
Blue birds forever colour the sky
        F#m      A       E             D
In this handmade heaven, we forget the time
       F#m        A       E       D
'Cause birds of a feather fly together

        F#m      A       D        E
In this handmade heaven (I come alive)
     F#m   A        D          E
Blue birds forever (colour the sky)
            F#m  A
In this handmade heaven

Handmade heaven
    F#m  A
Handmade heaven
    E    D
Handmade heaven

    E                 D
And I can no longer ignore
    Bb          A    E
The ivy growing tall
                           D
This life don't suit me anymore
    Bb              A    E
The writings on the wall

                         D        E
In this handmade heaven (I come alive)
     F#m            D          E
Blue birds forever (colour the sky)
        F#m      A
In this handmade heaven

Handmade heaven

Handmade heaven

(Blue birds forever) Birds of a feather
      F#m       A    E      D
(Blue birds forever) Fly together
     F#m      A
Blue birds forever
       D                E
In the strange, strange weather
     F#m      A
Ooh, birds forever
        E        D      F#m  A
In this handmade heaven
