I Saw a Bird Fly Away Dar Williams
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: F
I asked the ha[G]bitual [Am]party [Em]goer
[F]Just how [G]high she [C]thought she'd get
[F]And I [G]asked the e[Am]thereal [Em]girls
If [F]they were [G]floating [C]yet
CHORUS:
And [F]so I [G]asked the [Am]light of the [Em]day
[F]What's this [G]rush for [Am]hea[Em]ven
And [F]I saw a [G]bird fly [Am]away_[Em]_
And [F]I could not [G]ask a[C]gain[F] [C] [F] [C]
The [F]tabloid [G]tainted [Am]actress [Em]knows
The [F]myth of [G]higher [C]ground
The [F]thing she [G]got from [Am]playing a [Em]nun
She [F]got from [G]sleeping a[C]round
CHORUS:
And [F]so I [G]asked the [Am]light of the [Em]day
[F]What's this [G]rush for [Am]hea[Em]ven
And [F]I saw a [G]bird fly [Am]away_[Em]_
And [F]I could not [G]ask a[C]gain[F]
He [G]fell in [Am]the [Em]mud and
[F]He became en[C]lightened
[F]I [C]wonder[Am] who's [C]laughing [F]now[C]
And [F]I've been [G]running [Am]uphill, [Em]panting
[F]Punching [G]at the [C]air
[F]Fighting [G]what's been [Am]pushing me [Em]down
Like [F]I can [G]see it [C]there
CHORUS:
And [F]so I [G]asked the [Am]light of the [Em]day
[F]What's this [G]rush for [Am]hea[Em]ven
And [F]I saw a [G]bird fly [Am]away_[Em]_
And I [F]could not [G]ask a[C]gain
And [F]I saw [G]all this [Am]climbing, [Em]climbing
[F]Just as [G]far from [C]heaven
And [F]I saw a [G]bird fly [Am]away_[Em]_
And I [F]started [G]climbing [C]again
