[Verse 1]
D Am G D Sitting under the cypress tree I saw a miracle flying high C D I tuned into the song that she was singing D Am The melody was an honest friend and it G D Felt like I was learning to fly C D But I fear I'll never know the feeling
[Chorus]
Bm F#7 It must be nice (it must feel good) to just be heard D A Bm And it might sound a bit absurd D A Bm I'd sing along with the birds D A G I'd sing along if I only knew the words D A G D Em I'd sing along with the birds, if I only knew the words
[Solo]

[Verse 2]
D Am Staring into the wishing well has got you G D Feeling a particular way C D You can't stand to see your own reflection D Am So, toss a penny and close your eyes G D And try to think of something to say D C D And don't waste your wishes on perfection
[Chorus]
Bm F#7 It must be nice (it must feel good) to just be heard D A Bm And it might sound a bit absurd D A Bm I'd sing along with the birds D A G I'd sing along if I only knew the words D A G D Em I'd sing along with the birds, if I only knew the words
[Bridge]
F#m Am D I'd master every verse until my spirit learned to burst D F#m C Into the morning sun D While my heart is on the run

[Verse 3]
D Am All the wind in the whistlin' world G D Could whip a whisper any given day D C D Just to see if there was anyone to listen D Am They say the April rain will fall G D To resurrect the flowers of May D C D You can't know who you love until you miss them
[Chorus]
Bm F#7 It must be nice (it must feel good) to just be heard D A Bm And it might sound a bit absurd D A Bm I'd sing along with the birds D A G I'd sing along if I only knew the words D A G D Em I'd sing along with the birds, if I only knew the words
