Bluebird Blues

(Traditional / Gods and monsters)

The stone cold loner
And his eye? s amazing
I? m a stone cold loner
As cool as a man could be
I was gigin? myself
When the love comes down on me

I let my bluebird
Fly on a cage
I sing a song for they? ve never gonna change the world, no
Let her fly away
Oh, let her fly away
I guess some lonesome chap
Who's waiting for you night and day

Bluebird is a liar
She? ll never love you not for long
Bluebird? s liar!
She never gonna love you long
She don? t love you
But you know your best friend done before

I have an angel
With eyes like the ocean blue
I have an angel
With eyes like the ocean blue

Someday that bluebird
Is gonna fly away back to you

Angel, she? s got a?
Angel, angel sing a song
The rain is falling
And I believe my time has come

I let my bluebird
Fly on a cage
She? ll pull, for the night to change or save the world
No, she? s on bruising storm, angel
She? s on a bruising storm
The rain is falling and I believe my time has come

My bluebird told me
I was a lover babe
Falling a mountain in another black bird cage
I said why
What was wrong with me
Why why why, what? s wrong with me

What? s you gonna do
Cos? there? s a black bird picking out you see
Oh oh oh oh
