E
Black bird, why you wearin' that frown?

                     A                  A/G
Well, don't ya know Jesus loves you and me
and the preacher on TV your puttin' down?
E
Blackbird, how I love to hear your songs.

                     A                  A/G
Well, I could spend all my time in the shade of a tree
And listen all day long.
A-G-E
     Whoa yeah

A-G-E
     I could listen

A-G-E
     All day long
A-G-E Chorus
                G                  D
Whoa but your ever hearing, never understanding,

       A                                  E
Yea I see you're not percieving and your heart has grown calloused

G                       D
You're in a storm and lost your way,

           A
Won't you fly to heaven and be saved today.
Verse 2
E
Blackbird, now you've broken your wings.

                A
You try to fly high, but you know that

     A/G
You can't go anywhere, you can't do anything.

E
Blackbird, who put you in your cage?

                A
Tell me was it God or was it you

         A/G
Or was it me, well I guess it don't matter anyway.

A-G-E
     Whoa no no

A-G-E
     It don't matter

A-G-E
     No no anyway

Guitar Solo (I'm sorry...I don't know this!) A-G-E X5 GA A-G-E A-G-E You say you need a rememdy, For the thorn in your pride
                          A
I think it's such a tragedy

          A    G     E
That you left Him behind!
You say you light your candle But your love light doesn't shine.
                        A
You say you talk to angels

        A           G      E
Well, I say that's such a lie.

A-G-E
     Yes it is now

A-G-E           A-G-E                     A-G-E

A-G-E A-G-E If anyone knows the guitar solo, I am very interested in knowing what it is. But I am still a young musician, so I'm not really good at figuring that kind of stuff out. Well, God Bless! [email protected]
