Annie Lennox, Little Bird (1992)
Key: :[D] (w: Annie Lennox)

VERSE 1:
[A7] I look up to the little bird
That [D] glides across the [A7] sky
[A7] He sings the clearest melody
It [D] makes me want to [A7] cry
It [G] makes me want to [D] sit right down
And [A7] cry, cry, cry, yeah

VERSE 2:
[A7] I walk along the city streets
So [D] dark with rage and [A7] fear
[A7] And I, I wish that I could be that bird
And [D] fly away from [A7] here
I [G] wish I had the [D] wings
To fly a-[A7]-way from here, yeah

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

BRIDGE:
[D] They always said that you [F#m] knew best
But [D] this little bird's fallen [F#m] out of that nest now
[D] I've got a feeling that it [F#m] might have been blessed
So [E7] I've just got to put these wings to [A7] test

INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE]

VERSE 3:
[A7] For I am just a troubled soul
Who's [D] weighted, weighted to the [A7] ground
[A7] Give me the strength to carry on
Till [D] I can lay my burden [A7] down
Give [G] me the strength
To [D] lay this burden [A7] down, down down yeah

BREAK:
[G] Give me the [D] strength to lay it [A7] down
