Bird Song

	  		
A                                 E 
I hear a bird chirping up in the sky,  
A                                E                 A 
I'd like to be free like that, spread my wings so high.  
A                                      E 
I see the river flowing, water running by,  
A                           E                A 
I'd like to be that river, see what I might find.  
D                            A 
I feel the wind a-blowing, slowly changing time,  
                                E                  A 
I'd like to be that wind, I'd swirl and shape the sky.  
D                               A 
I smell the flowers blooming, opening for spring,  
                               E         A 
I'd like to be those flowers, open to everything. 

A                                                    E 
I feel the seasons change: the leaves, the snow and sun.  
A                              E            A 
I'd like to be those seasons, made up and undone.  
A                                               E 
I taste the living earth, the seeds that grow within,  
A                             E                A 
I'd like to be that earth, a home where life begins.  
D                            A 
I see the moon a-rising, reaching into night,  
                               E               A 
I'd like to be that moon, a knowing, glowing light.  
D                           A 
I know the silence as the world begins to wake,  
                            E                A 
I'd like to be that silence as the morning breaks. 

A                                 E 
I hear a bird chirping up in the sky,  
A                                E                 A 
I'd like to be free like that, spread my wings so high.  
A                                      E 
I see the river flowing, water running by,  
A                           E                A 
I'd like to be that river, see what I might find.  
D                            A 
I feel the wind a-blowing, slowly changing time,  
                                E                  A 
I'd like to be that wind, I'd swirl and shape the sky.  
D                               A 
I smell the flowers blooming, opening for spring,  
                               E         A 
I'd like to be those flowers, open to everything.
