They u[C]sed to th[F]ink the sw[C]allows [C/B]
were l[Am]iving un[(Em)]der w[F]ater
[F]All th[Fm]rough the w[C]inter
[Am]when they were m[F]issing fr[G]om the tr[C]ees
They u[C]sed to th[F]ink the g[C]eese [C/B]
b[Am]udded from the br[F]anches
E[Dm]ach gentle s[Am]unny spring
when t[F]hey came b[G]ack ag[C]ain
But the sw[G]allows and the geese,
th[F]ey have always h[C]eard
The r[Dm]inging of the b[Am]ells
that [F]echo thr[G]ough the e[C]arth
The m[C]onarch b[F]utterfl[C]ies [C/B]
in their cl[Am]oud of orange w[F]ings
And a[F]ll the g[Fm]olden e[C]els
sw[F]imming thr[G]ough the s[C]ea
They are f[C]ollow[F]ing a p[C]ath [C/B]
to pl[Am]aces never s[F]een
They s[F]ee the s[Fm]ecret m[C]ap
the m[F]oon draws [G]on the s[C]ea
The b[G]utterflies and eels,
th[F]ey have always h[C]eard
The r[Dm]inging of the b[Am]ells
that [F]echo thr[G]ough the e[C]arth
[C] [F] [C] [Am] [F] [Fm] [C] [F] [G] [C]
But the [C]airplanes [F]overh[C]ead [C/B]
hang h[Am]eavy in the a[F]ir
And a[Dm]ll the shiny c[Am]ars,
they c[F]ircle i[G]n desp[C]air
"Wh[G]ere am I?" They cry.
"Wh[F]ere are you? Where am [C]I?"
But t[Dm]hey will never h[Am]ear
The b[F]ells that r[G]ing ton[C]ight
The b[F]ells that [Fm] ring ton[C]ight
C (Drop out - Resume staccato w/ upstrokes)
[C]But the airplanes overh[C7]ead
hang h[F]eavy in the a[Fm]ir
And [C]all the shiny c[G]ars,
they c[F]ircle [G]in desp[C]air
