Repeat: CGAmF
I will lay down next to you
Stay in bed all afternoon
We were birds of a feather
We were always together
And I never will forget
All the little things you said
And that beautiful summer
You used to call me your love bird.
But the time went on
The wind has blown
And I have grown
And I started a feeling
That my wings have been broken
DmAmDm
And I can't believe that I would ever want to be set free
F
But I just can't stay
GC
So your love bird's flying away
G
Your love bird's flying away
Am
'Cause my heart's been stuck in a cage
F
Gotta sing my song so pretty, dum dum diddy
CG
And I'll miss you everyday
Am
'Cause there's nothing left to say
F
Gotta sing my song so pretty, dum dum diddy
repeat: CGAmF
I want the world at my feet
Even if it's bittersweet
I wanna stand on my own and
Hold my heart in my own hands.
'Cause I've begun to see
That you and me
Are different breeds.
So I gotta be leaving,
Gotta get back to breathing
DmAmDm
And I can't believe that I would ever want to be set free
F
But I just can't stay
GC
So your love bird's flying away
G
Your love bird's flying away
Am
'Cause my heart's been stuck in a cage
F
Gotta sing my song so pretty, dum dum diddy
CG
And I'll miss you everyday
Am
'Cause there's nothing left to say
F
Gotta sing my song so pretty, dum dum diddy
Dm
And you'll always be
AmA part of me,
Dm
You made me who I am
Am
But I gotta say, I'm not afraid
To test my wing span
DmAm
'cause they say if you love something let it go, let it go, let it go
FG
Open up the gate,
C
So your love bird's flying away
G
Your love bird's flying away
Am
'Cause my heart's been stuck in a cage
F
Gotta sing my song so pretty, dum dum diddy
CG
And I'll miss you everyday
Am
'Cause there's nothing left to say
FC
Gotta sing my song so pretty, dum dum diddy
