Amaj7 Emaj7 Gmaj7
Dmaj7 And for my opening Amaj7 line
I'm not trying to Emaj7 indicate my state of mind.
I turn you Amaj7 on,
I tell you that I'm Emaj7 laughing just to keep from crying
Pretty Amaj7 music when you Emaj7 hear it,
Keep on Amaj7 trying to get Emaj7 near it.
A little Amaj7 rhythm for your Emaj7 spirit
Oh but D that's what it's E for
Come on G in, here's the A door
A Amaj7 nd I've seen a sparrow get Emaj7 high
A Gmaj7 nd waste his time in the Dmaj7 sky
Amaj7 He thinks it's easy to Emaj7 fly
He's just a Gmaj7 little bit freer than Dmaj7 I
Now here's a myste Amaj7 ry
And maybe you can Emaj7 help to make it clear to me
When you're fast Amaj7 asleep
Then what is it that's Emaj7 lighting up the dreams you see
Only your Amaj7 tears can't con Emaj7 ceal it
And only your Amaj7 prayers may not re Emaj7 veal it
You've got Amaj7 soul so you can Emaj7 feel it
And when D you make the E scene
Well you G know what I A mean
Hey, Amaj7 I've seen a sparrow get Emaj7 high
And Gmaj7 waste his time in the Dmaj7 sky
Amaj7 He thinks it's easy to Emaj7 fly
He's just a Gmaj7 little bit freer than Dmaj7 I
Amaj7 Emaj7 Gmaj7 Dmaj7 x 2
Amaj7 Emaj7 Gmaj7
Dmaj7 Down here on the Amaj7 ground
When you find folks are Emaj7 giving you the runaround
Keep your game Amaj7 uptight
And if you must just Emaj7 take your secrets underground
Now poli Amaj7 ticians are trying to Emaj7 speech you
Mad colour Amaj7 watchers are trying to Emaj7 teach you
Very Amaj7 few will really try to Emaj7 reach you
If you're D lost in a E stack
That's G OK, come all A black
Now Amaj7 I'd be the last to Emaj7 deny
That Gmaj7 I'm just an average Dmaj7 guy
And don't you know Amaj7 each little bird in the Emaj7 sky
Is just a Gmaj7 little bit freer than Dmaj7 I
Hey ordinary J Amaj7 oe
Although they say you're Emaj7 just a lazy so-and-so
What they think is Amaj7 real
Is nothing but an Emaj7 animated puppet show
So don't let Amaj7 time and space co Emaj7 nfuse you
And don't let Amaj7 name and form ab Emaj7 use you
Let that Amaj7 Big Joe Williams Emaj7 blues you
In the D light of the E sun you can G see how they A burn
Oh Amaj7 I've seen a sparrow get Emaj7 high
And Gmaj7 waste his time in the Dmaj7 sky
Amaj7 He thinks it's easy to Emaj7 fly
He's just a Gmaj7 little bit freer than Dmaj7 i
Amaj7 Emaj7 to fade
