Birds Music by Elton John Lyrics by Bernie Taupin Available on the album Songs From The West Coast (This intro part is played in thrids. The eighth note and the third note in the scale The following two lines are written as the key the third is played on.) G A Bb B Bb A G Fmaj7+9 C G A Bb B Bb A G Fmaj7+9 C
There's someG things I don't have now BbSome things I don't talk about Bbsus2 Bb These thinCgs are between myself and I G In my thFick skull the joker C Csus4 hides G
There's consequences I'm scared to taste Cold hard truths I can't face These days are different than the past Reflections change in the looking glass
And evFerywhere I look therCe's something toF/C learCn G A sFliver of truth from every briCdge wCsus4e burn G A Fhatful of quaCrters and a Fnaked soCng G Don't anFswer the questionC of where we Dbelong G/D D
How come birds G Don't fall from the sky wheCn they die' G How come birds Eb Always look for a quiet plFace to hide These worGds Can't explain what I feel iCnside' G Eb F G A Bb B Bb A G Fmaj7+9 C Like birds I need a quiet place to hide
G A Bb B Bb A G Fmaj7+9 C These independent moves I make This confidence I try to fake You can hear the beating of my heart But not a feather falling in the dark And everything I hear never makes any sense Another old prophet perched on the fence A cupful of pencils and a self help guru Don't answer the question of what I am to you Solo: F C F/C C G F C Csus4 G F C F C G F C D G/D D Copyright (c) Mark van Gerven Netherlands
