[Intro]
Bb F
Bb F (The one thing that matters to me more than anything else is this idea of Denis being a bird)
[Verse 1]
Bb F Can a bird ever truly rest? Bb F Can a bird ever truly rest? Bb Can it sleep F In the air? C Dm Is it longing to be somewhere out of its tree Bb Close to home?
[Verse 2]
Bb F Can a memory truly rest? Bb F Can a memory fly the nest? Bb Does it move F In the air? C Can you hold it for me Dm Somehow just within reach Bb When I'm old?
[Pre-Chorus]
C I'll never forget the spring in your step Dm To get to where you had to get Bb I can see the back of your head F Then it's gone
[Chorus]
Bb To the blue F Dm We remember how you flew Bb F Denis was a bird Bb F Denis was a bird Gm7 F Denis was a bird
[Verse 3]
Bb F Does a thought ever truly rest? Bb F Does a thought ever truly rest? Bb F Does it roam like a road C Is it out there for me? Dm Apple up in the tree Bb F Will it fall?
[Pre-Chorus]
C
I can picture your take off and landLike it was yesterdays land
Dm Bb Teleport 'round the garden F Then you're gone
[Chorus]
Bb To the blue F Dm Like the ancient meadows knew Bb F Denis was a bird Bb F Denis was a bird Gm7 F Denis was a bird
[Bridge]
C Dm Bb Nothing to save, no more weather delays C Dm Bb Nothing to lose, no more troubles for you
[Pre-Chorus]
C I can still see you running around F And if it stays in my mind then it's not gone
[Chorus]
Bb To the blue F Dm We remember how you flew Bb F Denis was a bird Bb F Denis was a bird Gm7 F Denis was a bird
[Outro]
C I'll never forget the spring in your step F To get to where you had to get
