_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] you wore it _ and [Bbm] you kept it in your pillow all the [Db]
same.
_ My high-flying [Ab] _
bird has flown from out [Db] my arms.
I thought myself a [Bbm]
keeper, _ she thought I meant her [Eb]
harm.
_ She thought I [Ab] was the archer,
_ a _ weatherman [Db] over words, but I could never [Gb]
shoot [Ab] her [Gb] down.
_ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ My high [Ab]-flying _ bird.
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] The white walls of your dress, the new _ [Db]
mustang scarlet red.
_ _ [Ab]
You're led upon the coast, oh, like a [Eb] young man.
_ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ In the foreign field, [Db] yeah.
_ _ _ _ _ Oh, [Ab]
what meant me _ wonderful [Db] is all I heard you say.
You [Ab] never closed your eyes at night and learned [Eb] to love daylight.
_ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ Instead you moved [Db]
away.
