Chords

[Verse 1]
D
Come back baby bird

                G
With your dirty wings in tatters

Bm
Come home where you belong

      A
Nobody knows you better
[Verse 2]
D
Now bring back your velvet heart

                G
And we'll make you brand new feathers

Bm
Sleep through the morning light

        A
With your arms around your brother
[Chorus]
D                    G
Babybird come back home

D                                       G
Babybird you were never really on your own
[Verse 3]
D
Now outside faces cry

                G
With the tears of lonesome orphans

Bm
And behind every mask

      A
is the face of another
[Verse 4]
D
Wherever you have been

               G
wherever you took cover

Bm
No arms that pulled you in

        A
could hold you like your mother
[Chorus]
D                    G
Babybird, come back home

D                                      G
Babybird, you were never really on your own
[Verse 5]
D
When all my colors fade

                    G
And my wings, they've turned to leather

Bm
I'll know the reasons why

      A
God let me get older
[Verse 6]
D
When all my days are through

       G
And I fly these hills no longer

Bm
I'll lay beneath the stars

        A
And I'll watch you flying over
[Chorus]
D                    G
Babybird, come back home

D                                        G
Babybird, you were never really on your own

D                     G
Babybird, come back home

D                                        G
Babybird, you were never really on your own
