Kathy Mattea -" Wood Thrush's Song" chords
Start Jamming...
This is a song by Laurie Lewis and she does this song as a big kind of choral piece
But I I loved what it said.
It's about technology and
how sometimes we we [Gm] get so relentless in what we're making as as
The human race that we lose sight of what we're losing as the human race
I walk down the hall where the woods used to stand
[Bb] Concrete at my feet, brick [D]
walls at every hand
[Gm] And over my head, steel girders so [F] strong
Where [Eb] I first felt [F] the spell of [Gm] the wood thrush's song
Now [Eb] the wood thrush is vanished
[Gm] Seeking a place [Eb] that's not felt the crush of [D] man's embrace
[Gm] Steep woods [F] are gone [Gm] now.
Oh how [F] I long [Eb] to again [F] feel the spell [Gm] of the wood thrush's song
Over my head just a few years ago
[Bb] Part of the leaves [D] shivered when the breezes did blow
[Gm] Now the deep hum of vengeance
Drowns [F] the soft sigh [Eb] of the wind [F] through the [Gm] leaves in trees nearby
[Eb] Now the wood thrush is [Gm] vanished
Seeking a place [Eb] that's not felt the crush [D] of man's embrace
[Gm] Steep woods are [F] gone [Gm] now.
Oh how [F] I long to [Eb] again feel [F] the [Gm] spell of the wood thrush's song
[Bb] [D]
[Gm]
[F] In [Eb]
[F] [Gm]
is the inventor, the builder, the sage
[Bb] The writer and seeker [D] wrote truth by the [Gm] page
But all of his knowledge can never [F] explain
[Eb]
deep [F] mystery of [Gm] the wood thrush's refrain
Now [Eb] the wood thrush is vanished
[Gm] Seeking a place [Eb] that's not felt the crush of [D] man's embrace
[Gm] Steep woods [F] are gone [Gm] now.
Oh [F] how I long to again feel the spell of the wood thrush's song
Steep woods are gone now.
Oh how I long [Eb] to again [F] feel the spell [Gm] of the wood thrush's song
Steep woods are [F] gone [Gm] now.
Oh how [F] I long [Eb] to again feel [F] the spell [Gm] of the wood thrush's song
