Annie Lennox, Little Bird (1992)
Key: :[G#] (w: Annie Lennox)

VERSE 1:
[D#7] I look up to the little bird
That [G#] glides across the [D#7] sky
[D#7] He sings the clearest melody
It [G#] makes me want to [D#7] cry
It [C#] makes me want to [G#] sit right down
And [D#7] cry, cry, cry, yeah

VERSE 2:
[D#7] I walk along the city streets
So [G#] dark with rage and [D#7] fear
[D#7] And I, I wish that I could be that bird
And [G#] fly away from [D#7] here
I [C#] wish I had the [G#] wings
To fly a-[D#7]-way from here, yeah

CHORUS:
But [Cm] my, my, I feel so low
[F] My, my, where do I go?
[Cm] My, my, what do I know?
[F] My, my, we reap what we sow

BRIDGE:
[G#] They always said that you [Cm] knew best
But [G#] this little bird's fallen [Cm] out of that nest now
[G#] I've got a feeling that it [Cm] might have been blessed
So [A#7] I've just got to put these wings to [D#7] test

INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE]

VERSE 3:
[D#7] For I am just a troubled soul
Who's [G#] weighted, weighted to the [D#7] ground
[D#7] Give me the strength to carry on
Till [G#] I can lay my burden [D#7] down
Give [C#] me the strength
To [G#] lay this burden [D#7] down, down down yeah

BREAK:
[C#] Give me the [G#] strength to lay it [D#7] down
