D With beady black Gm eyes the bluebird has Bm died
its feathers have F#m/C# dried, it couldn't sur G/D vive,
E from the D/A winter's Edim grasp, Bm nothing G ever lasts
D But you and I Gm know the seasons are Bm slow
the rivers they F#m/C# froze, the wind always G/D blows
E down D/A all our Edim dreams, the Bm engine's G out of steam D
Bm All of your days will be D blessed
so put on a smile and get F9 dressed
into the void we will G fly away from here
Bm All of your thoughts will be D crowned
you'll be the toast of the F9 town
into the view of a G million crystal spheres
D Pitchfork in my Gm foot, I tried the best I Bm could
dragging all this F#m/C# wood with a rusty old fish G/D hook
E to D/A feed the Edim fire and Bm make our G blood flow higher
D But I'm a stubborn Gm man, the sun needs my com Bm mand
I'm gonna make a F#m/C# stand, condemn this twisted G/D land
E I'm D/A sure you'd Edim agree, but Bm I can't G leave you see D
Bm All of your days will be D blessed
so put on a smile and get F9 dressed
into the void we will G fly away from here
Bm All of your thoughts will be D crowned
you'll be the toast of the F9 town
into the view of a G million crystal spheres
Bm All of your days will be D blessed
so put on a smile and get F9 dressed
into the void we will G fly away from here
Bm All of your thoughts will be D crowned
you'll be the toast of the F9 town
into the view of a G million crystal spheres
Repeat intro
D But you and I Gm know the seasons are Bm slow
the rivers they F#m/C# froze, the wind always G/D blows
E D/A Edim Bm G D G - D
down all our dreams, the engine's out of steam
