The Opening Act of Spring Frank Turner
[verse]
(pm)
Oh the[G] birds are ringing[C/G] in the opening act of [G]spring
And I have [Em]fallen down and I'm [Am]so much worse than I hav[C/G-D-G]e ever been
Oh the [G]season's acting [C/G]strange and I know that something has to [G]change
But there[Em] is no path I can c[Am]hoose that will not brin[C/G-D-G]g somebody pain
[cborus]
[D/F#]Oh [D/E]oh [D/F#]oh-oh [G]oh Please f[Am]orgive me for the [G]things that I must[D/F#] do
[D/F#]Oh [D/E]oh [D/F#]oh-oh [G]oh I have h[Am]urt so many people[G] it was never my i[D/F#]ntention to hurt you

[verse]
Oh the [G]clouds have gathered [C/G]thick and in my stomach I feel [G]sick
And I have [Em]all this drive and [Am]no idea what I shou[C/G-D-G]ld do with it
But [G]they say there is a [C/G]calm after the passing of the [G]storm
So I can [Em]dream of going [Am]back outside when the rain [C/G-D-G]and thunder's done
[cborus]
[D/F#]Oh [D/E]oh [D/F#]oh-oh [G]oh Please f[Am]orgive me for the [G]things that I must[D/F#] do
[D/F#]Oh [D/E]oh [D/F#]oh-oh [G]oh I have h[Am]urt so many people[G] it was never my i[D/F#]ntention to hurt you
[bridge]
And you [G]know the old folks say, they can [D]tell which way the rivers flowing
[Am]Tell which way the wind is blowâ??ing[C/G], by watching careful for the...
[G]Signs among the little things: [Am]The barking dogs, the birds on wing
And [G]I am deaf and blind and [D]I can't say if I can change
[Am]the patterns that have caused you pain, [C/G]for I was raised in suburbs
[G]Sheltered from the sun and rain [Am]far away from subtle season's change

Oh [G]baby I will [C/G]read about the buzzing of the [G]bees
About [Em]the grass and snakes and [Am]spawning lakes and the differe[C/G-D-G]nt types of trees
And [G]I will find a [C/G]way that leads from cruel April into [G]May
[Em]And someday soon it[Am] will be June and you'll[C/G-D-G] decide to stay
[cborus]
[D/F#]Oh [D/E]oh [D/F#]oh-oh [G]oh please f[Am]orgive me for the [G]things that I have[D/F#] done
[D/F#]Oh [D/E]oh [D/F#]oh-oh [G]oh I will c[Am]arry your [G]umbrella in the summer
And I'll shade you from the [D/F#]sun
