  G                C     G
People they can be so unkind
                 C                 
If they're not happy, if they can't
              G
 speak their mind
                Em             G
But unwind the needle just to find
          Em  D          G   C G
One more line, one more line

  G                C          G
People they got something to say
               C                 
They can be carried or be carried 
   G
away
                          Em       
But it takes bricks and mortar, to 
            G
speak your mind
                     Em  D        
So keep putting 'em down, put 'em 
  G   C
down

               G           
That bird had song to sing, 
   C           G
something to say
Continues after the ad
              C                  
Is it still here? Or has it flown 
  G
away?
       Em                         G
This morning it had something to say
             Em  D              
Is it still here? Or has it flown 
   G      C G
away?

      G                      
It reminds of a time where my 
    C    G
memories fade
                 C                 
Thoughts ain't sharp unless they're
  G
 laid
                  Em               
But if I can't remember will I feel
      G
 it again?
                         Em  D  
All I need's a piece of paper and 
   G   C G
pen

                     C           
But you can take a photograph, or 
                  G
you can just be there
                   C               
Do you need to remember? Or can you
   G
 just be there?
                Em                 
If I kept my promise, would we 
       G
still be friends?
          C                    
If I remembered would I feel it 
  D
again?

               G           
That bird had song to sing, 
   C           G
something to say
              C                  
Is it still here? Or has it flown 
  G
away?
       Em                         G
This morning it had something to say
             Em  D              
Is it still here? Or has it flown 
   G      C G
away?

               G                 
Sometimes I question and I wonder 
        C        G
how I just can sing
                C                  
Anger can take over mine, 'till 
            G
it's carried away
                   Em            
But it's just not there, it don't 
          G
make no sense
                Em D              C
But I wrote it down, I wrote it down
