Bird Of Passage Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

(Remark: On the low E-string, I use the little finger for the "3"

note, and the thumb for the "2" and "1". I also find the "4" note

quite difficult to reach, so usually I play that as a "0".)

There's a Amlump in my throat,G and an ache in my DheartF

There's Amtears in my eyes,G 'cause we're an ocean aDpartF

There's Amnothing quite as real as Gbeing on my own,

DNothing quite as true as Fbeing all alone

This Ambird has flown,F

But when the Dsummer has passed, she'll Fcome back home

With a Amchange of season,G she flies her Dnest F

And like the Amsunny dusk,G she sets to the DwestF

AmLoneliness is the Gcross I bear, Dsolitude is the Fcloak I wear

I Ammiss you, I need you, I Glove you,

When the Dautumn comes, I'll be Fwaiting for you
