Now, when [G] I was a kid, when I was in my formative [D] years, when I was listening to music and I
became obsessed with the music of California in [G] 1966, 67, 68.
[D] American music, Hendrix, The Airplane,
[G] Grateful Dead, Buffalo Springfield, Moby Grip, the truth.
It didn't come from England, the truth came from America.
[D] They were singing about some stuff more than just
This is one of my favorite songs from that time.
[D] From Buffalo Springfield, it's called Bluebird.
[G] Listen to [D] my bluebird love, [G] can't tell you why.
[G] Deep [D] within his heart you [G] see, she knows how [D] to cry.
[C]
[D] That's why,
[G] [D] there she sits, a lofty perch, strangest color [D] blue.
[G] Crying is [D] forgotten now,
[G] it's only [D] of you, yeah,
[G] [D] just you.
[G] [D]
So take all these blues, it must be a thousand years, if you know what you can do, you [G] just
know, sit there mesmerized by the depth of her eyes, you could categorize, she's got
soul, she's got soul, [C] she's got soul, [D] she's got soul.
[A]

[Bm] [C]

[D]
[Am]
[D] She's [G]
[D]
[G] got soul, she's got soul, she's got [D] soul.
[G] Soon she's going to fly away, sadness is [D] her [C] own, [D] [G] through the bold and the poor, dear.
[C] [D]
Go home, [G]
[D] go home, yeah, [G]
[D] go home, bye bye bluebird.
Bluebird, she'll be with you, she'll be with you, she'll be with you, yeah.
Bluebird, and the world.
[G]
On guitar, Kevin Scott McMichael, alright!
Man, [Bb] I've been around those streets [F] outside, you've got [D] some of the most amazing hippies.
[G]
I feel like I'm at [Am] home, and I think I'm [D] at home.
[Ab] Now this next song is from our new [D] album, it's a song that was written by Tim Harden
back in 67, it's called If I Were a Carpenter.
If I were a [C] carpenter, if you were a lady, would you [C] marry me?
[D] Would you have my baby?
If a miller [C] were my [G] trade, I'd have a mill [D] wheel grinding.
Would you [C] miss your car, if I [G] were your [D] sunshine?
[C] Save my love through [D]
loneliness, [C] save my love through [D] sorrow.
[D] I'll give you my [G] only [G] man, and give me [D] your tomorrow.
[D]
If a tinker [C] were my trade, [G] would you still [C] love me?
[D]
Carrying [C] the fox I make, [G] would you [D] abide?
If I were a [C] carpenter, [G] if you [D] were a [G] lady, [D] would you marry me [C]
anyway?
[G] Would you have [D] my baby, [G] [C]
marry [D] me?
Save my, oh, save the baby, save the [A] baby.
Save the baby.
