Birds

D

[Verse 1]
D                           G
I don't wanna drive a fancy car 
today
              Bm        A      Em
I don't wanna ride in a red corvette
D                    G
I don't wanna jog my Saturday away
      Bm          A           C
But I don't wanna go home yet
D                       G
Today is not the day to jump out of 
a plane
              Bm          A  
I don't wanna parasail or play 
    Em
roulette
D                            G
I don't wanna risk it all or go 
insane
      Bm          Asus2       Cadd9
But I don't wanna go home yet

[Chorus]
               G         D
I just want to watch the birds go by
        F#7                        
From my handy foldable blue canvas 
 Bm
throne
        G          D
I wanna watch them fly and fly
    F#7                      
And see them soar up into the 
 Bm     D7
unknown
        G                     
But I'd feel just like a nerd, 
          Gm                       
watching birds, watching me here 
    D
all alone

[Verse 2]
D                            G
I don't wanna break dance or learn 
taekwondo
              Bm                A 
I don't wanna fish till all the 
        Em
fish are gone
D                          G
I don't wanna roller skate even if 
it's slow
              Bm          A      C
I don't wanna pass out in a marathon
D                    G
I don't like soccer, baseball track 
or field
        Bm       A        Em
I'm not up for a match of polo
D                     G
I don't wanna seek or try to stay 
concealed
         Bm        Asus2    Cadd9
I'm also not up for... water polo

[Chorus]
             G         D
I just wanna watch the birds up 
there
          F#7                    
Track the migratory patterns that 
       Bm
they've flown
        G          D
I wanna watch them from my chair
        F#7                        
With my binoculars, my latte and my
  Bm   D7
 phone
   G                         Gm   
Trying to spot a lark in the park 
                     D
parked in nature all alone

[Bridge]
A                                 
Alone here with the doves and the 
G
sparrows and the ospreys
    F#m                     G
The owlets, the eagles and my list
          A                    
It's just me and Mr. Finch, the 
 G
robins, the kingfishers
    Em                         
The snipes, though I heard they 
        A
don't exist
G
Each little species in its little 
way can teach me
     F#m                        E7
What awaits you if you can get away

[Chorus]
        G            A7
I wanna watch the birds do what they
 will
F#7                           Bm
Sorry if I'm ornithologically prone
        G                   
I wanna watch from somewhere 
               D
undisturbing, quiet, calm and still
F#7                          
Sit right here and gaze at the 
    Bm   D7
unknown

[Otro]
G                    Gm          
I don't wanna fly in the sky, I 
           G
just wanna be alone.
               D
It's not a big deal or anything
G      Gm       D
I just wanna be alone
