Annie Lennox, Little Bird (1992)
^{Key: :[C#] (w: Annie Lennox)}

VERSE 1:
[G#7] I look up to the little bird
That [C#] glides across the [G#7] sky
[G#7] He sings the clearest melody
It [C#] makes me want to [G#7] cry
It [F#] makes me want to [C#] sit right down
And [G#7] cry, cry, cry, yeah

VERSE 2:
[G#7] I walk along the city streets
So [C#] dark with rage and [G#7] fear
[G#7] And I, I wish that I could be that bird
And [C#] fly away from [G#7] here
I [F#] wish I had the [C#] wings
To fly a-[G#7]-way from here, yeah

CHORUS:
But [Fm] my, my, I feel so low
[A#] My, my, where do I go?
[Fm] My, my, what do I know?
[A#] My, my, we reap what we sow

BRIDGE:
[C#] They always said that you [Fm] knew best
But [C#] this little bird's fallen [Fm] out of that nest now
[C#] I've got a feeling that it [Fm] might have been blessed
So [D#7] I've just got to put these wings to [G#7] test

INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE]

VERSE 3:
[G#7] For I am just a troubled soul
Who's [C#] weighted, weighted to the [G#7] ground
[G#7] Give me the strength to carry on
Till [C#] I can lay my burden [G#7] down
Give [F#] me the strength
To [C#] lay this burden [G#7] down, down down yeah

BREAK:
[F#] Give me the [C#] strength to lay it [G#7] down
