Capo 7
Em C D G
Do you remember when we were two beautiful birds we would
Em C D
light up the sky as we fly,
Em C D G
You were orange in red like the sun when it sets,
Am D
i was green as an apple's eye
Em C D G
You said you loved all the songs that I sing
Em C D
like nothing youâ??d ever heard
Em C D G
And said I loved you with all of my heart, When,
C D G
We were two beautiful birds
Em C D G
Em C D G
remember when we were two beautiful birds?
Em C D
we would sing when the morning will come,
Em C D G
You are silver and blue like the moon when itâ??s new
Am D
I was gold as a summer sun,
Em C D G
But one day you asked for a different song,
Em C D
One that I just couldnâ??t sing,
Em C D G
I got the melody sharp and the words all wrong,
Am D
Those were the last days of spring,
Am Em
To build a nest we pecked feathers from our chests,
G D
Like a book tearing out every page,
Am Em
We weren't to know that these feathers will grow
G D
Into a beautiful cage
