Dark Bird

Intro: A

A
On a cool September mornin', in the 
fall of 2'03,
A                         E      
A crier from Jerusalem brought 
          A
the news to me.
      D7
His words were sharp and dreaded, 
and they made a lonesome sound,
           A
And they snapped my heart in two, 
like a stick stepped on the ground.
        E
And I cried and cried and cried, at 
the cutting of the pain,
      A                        E  
And quietly said goodbye, so long 
            A
in Jesus' name.

       G              A
Dark bird, watch you fly,

       G               A
Dark bird, to another sky.
          C                        
And I'll bet you were a sight, when
      D7
 you hit that cloud of love,
          A                        
And flew out the other side, in the
  E         A
 form of a dove.
       A
Dark bird, dark bird.

Six feet one and a box of steel, in 
a pretty coat of black,
A                             
Well I watched the world, watch 
                E               A
themselves, watch your final act.
        D7
And I couldn't help but notice, when
 they laid you in the earth,
    A
A train went by, headed north, for 
whatever it is worth.
             D7
Your voice echoes in the wind, it 
rumbles through the trees,
      A                            
But after you've been everywhere, I
   E                  A
 guess it's time to leave.

       G              A
Dark bird, watch you fly,
       G               A
Dark bird, to another sky.
          C                        
And I'll bet you were a sight, when
      D7
 you hit that cloud of love,
          A                        
And flew out the other side, in the
  E         A
 form of a dove.
       A
Dark bird, dark bird.
  G   A
Dark bird.
