Verse 1
D                 Am                   G              D
Sitting under the cypress tree I saw a miracle flying high
                 Am                D
I tuned into the song that she was singing
D                   Am
  The melody was an honest friend and it
G                           D
Felt like I was learning to fly
                Am             D
But I fear I’ll never know the feeling

Chrus
Bm                               F#7
   It must be nice (it must feel good) to just be heard
D              A            Bm
  And it might sound a bit absurd
D           A             Bm
  I’d sing along with the birds
D           A         G
  I’d sing along if I only knew the words
D           A             G                D        Em
  I’d sing along with the birds, if I only knew the words

Verse 2
D                  Am
  Staring into the wishing well has got you
G                    D
Feeling a particular way
                   Am                 D
You can’t stand to see your own reflection
D                      Am
  So, toss a penny and close your eyes
    G                            D
And try to think of something to say
D                      Am              D
  And don’t waste your wishes on perfection

Chrus
Bm                               F#7
   It must be nice (it must feel good) to just be heard
D              A            Bm
  And it might sound a bit absurd
D           A             Bm
  I’d sing along with the birds
D           A         G
  I’d sing along if I only knew the words
D           A             G                D        Em
  I’d sing along with the birds, if I only knew the words

Bridge
                 F#m            Am                D
I’d master every verse until my spirit learned to burst
D                    F#m  C
Into the morning sun
                         D
While my heart is on the run

Slo
D   Am   G   D
D   Am   D

D   Am   G   D
D   Am   D

Verse 3
D                     Am
  All the wind in the whistlin’ world
             G                 D
Could whip a whisper any given day
D                          Am           D
  Just to see if there was anyone to listen
D                    Am
  They say the April rain will fall
   G                        D
To resurrect the flowers of May
D                        Am                  D
  You can’t know who you love until you miss them

Chrus
Bm                               F#7
   It must be nice (it must feel good) to just be heard
D              A            Bm
  And it might sound a bit absurd
D           A             Bm
  I’d sing along with the birds
D           A         G
  I’d sing along if I only knew the words
D           A             G                D        Em
  I’d sing along with the birds, if I only knew the words
