[Verse 1]
Cm D#
A red bird was singing
Gm F
About another time
Cm D#
Softer than a daydream
Gm F
On a summer night
Cm D#
She flew out of a rainstorm
Gm F
Darker than the night
Cm D#
I guess her love caressed it
F D#
Stories from her life
[Chorus]
Gm F C
Red bird don’t get tired now
Gm F C
You can almost touch the light
Gm F D#
Red bird don’t stop singing your song
F Cm
Fly for tomorrow tonight
Cm D#
Sorry for the lies
Gm F
Sorry doesn’t do
Cm D#
She broke her wings just trying
Gm F
To get thru to you
Cm D#
If it’s only time
Gm F
I’ll give her some of mine
Cm D#
It’ll take more than a phone call
Gm F
To get her feeling fine
Gm F C
Red bird don’t get tired now
Gm F C
You can almost touch the light
Gm F D#
Red bird don’t stop singing your song
F
Fly for tomorrow
Gm F C
Red bird don’t get tired now
Gm F C
You can almost touch the light
Gm F D#
Red bird don’t stop singing your song
F C
Fly for tomorrow tonight
Cm D#
And how does it feel
Gm F
To take her from the sky
Cm D#
I pray you’re out there sleeping
Gm F
When it’s time for a bird to fly
When it’s time for a bird to fly
