I Was A Bird Chords

[Verse]
C            F              C
I was a bird that loved to fly
             Am   F          G
Catching the wind as it went south
            C    F              C
And I could touch every inch of sky
                 F    G              C
And the sweetest songs trilled from my mouth
         F     G           C
But I'm no bird anyone can see
             Am    F            G
And there's no wind waiting for me
            C                        Am
It's just a dream, it's just a dream
        F    G      C       F C F
To be a bird flying free
        C
I was a cloud that loved to drift
         Am   F         G
Offering shade to lay upon
                 C     F   C       Am
And the greenest grass was my gift
             F   G      C
And a summer day was my song
           F     G          C
But I'm no cloud anyone can see
                 Am   F          G
And there's just dust instead of green
            C     F            C     Am
It's just a dream, it's just a dream
        F    G         C
To be a cloud drifting free
 
F G C Am Dm G C F C Am F G C F C
 
C            F              C
I was a light that loved to dance
          Am  F             G
Without a care of who might see
          C   F             C      Am
I tempted fate and welcomed chance
               F    G          C
And I held the world inside of me
              F     G                C
The clouds have fled, and the birds have flown
                   Am  F          G
And the light that was is all but gone
            C     F            C     Am
It's just a dream, it's just a dream
 
 
[Outro]
        F     G
To be a light
        Em    Am7
To be a cloud
        F    G
To be a bird
        C
Flying free
