Hey, [C] hey, [Eb] ladybird, ain't it [Bb] just the way, the [F] way that love grows cold [Eb] and then fades [Bb] away?
[F] Now [Cm] when he touches you, [Eb] make [Bb] no mistake, the [F] fire's long gone out [Eb] and the ash [Bb] has [F] blown away.
[Bb] [Eb]
And you don't know how [Bb] to leave,
[Cm] [Bb]
and you don't know where [Eb] to find,
and you don't know [Bb] what you're feeling, [Cm] [F] but you know it's [Cm] not [Eb] satisfying
[F] today.
So [Cm] many little [Eb] ones, so [Bb] many miles, you got [F] a lot to feed [Cm] and you know [Eb] you don't [Bb] know how.
[F] You're making [Cm] the best of it, [Eb] somehow you're making [Bb] do, making [F] the best of the days [Eb] that
you stay and you wait in [Bb] this cage [F] they made for you.
[Eb]
And you don't know how [Bb] to leave,
[Cm]
and you don't know where [Eb] to find,
and you've got a lot of things [Bb] to lose.
[Cm] So you've got a lot of things [Eb] to hide, and you don't know [Bb] what you feel,
[Gm] [Cm]
but you know
it's not [Eb] satisfying.
And you know you don't [Bb] believe,
[Cm]
but you know you've got to [Eb] try.
[F] After today, feel [Eb] the winter baby miss [Bb] it, heavy on [F] the wind, coming [Cm] back again.
[Eb] [Ab]
Maybe it's time [Eb] to fly,
[Cm]
time to fly [F] away.
[Ab] When you're gonna spread your wings [Eb] and fly,
[Cm]
when you're gonna fly [F] away,
[G] when you're gonna fly away.
