GC9D
You have many houses, one for every season
GC9D
Mountains in your windows, violets in your hand
Em7C9D
Through your English meadows your blue-eyed horses wander
C9D
You're in Colorado for the spring
GC9D
When the winter finds you, you fly to where it's summer
GC9D
Rooms that face the ocean, moonlight on your bed
Em7C9D
Mermaids swift as dolphins paint the air with diamonds
C9D
You are like a seagull as you said
CG
Why do you fly bright feathered sometimes in my dreams?
A#C
The shadows of your wings fall over my face
A#C
I can feel no air, I can find no peace
A#C
Brides in black ribbons, witches in white
A#CG
Fly in through windows, fly out through the night
CG
Why do I think I'm dying sometimes in my dreams
A#C
I see myself a child running through the trees
A#C
Searching for myself, looking for my life
A#C
Looking everywhere crawling on my knees
A#C g
I cannot see the leaves, I cannot see the light
Em7D
Then I see you walking just beyond the forest
Em7D
Walking very quickly, walking by yourself
Em7D
Your shoes are silver, your coat is made of velvet
Em7D
Your eyes are shining, your voice is sweet and clear
CD
"Come on", you say, "Come with me, I'm going to the castle"
CD
All the bells are ringing, the weddings have begun
CD
But I can only stand here, I cannot move to follow
CC9D
I'm burning in the shadows and freezing in the sun
GC9D
There are people with you living in your houses
GC9D
People from your childhood who remember how you were
Em7C9D
You were always flying, nightingale of sorry
C9DC
Singing bird with rainbows on your wings
