Gordon Lightfoot - The Way I Feel (Acoustic) [INTRO:] Dm Am7 Dm Am7 Dm [VERSE 1]
          Am7            Dm
The way I feel is like a robin

                 Am7              Dm
Whose babes have flown to come no more

                Am7            Dm
like a tall oak tree alone and crying

                    Am7                   Dm
When the birds have flown and the nest is bare
[VERSE 2]
Dm          Am7             Dm
Now a woman Lord, is like a young bird

                 Am7                   Dm
And the tall oak tree is a young man's heart

          Am7                    Dm
Among its boughs you'll find her nesting

Dm                  Am7                  Dm
When the nights are cool, she's warm and dry
[VERSE 3]
             Am7               Dm
Your coat of green, it will protect her

               Am7                  Dm
Her wings will grow, your love will too

            Am7              Dm
But all too soon your mighty branches

              Am7                       Dm
Will cease to hold her. She'll fly from you
[VERSE 4]
Dm            Am7            Dm
Now the way I feel is like a robin

                 Am7              Dm
Whose babes have flown to come no more

                Am7            Dm
Like a tall oak tree alone and crying

                    Am7                   Dm
When the birds have flown and the nest is bare

                    Am7                   Dm
When the birds have flown and the nest is bare
