Nina Simone - Blackbird chords
Start Jamming...
[G] Why you wanna fly, blackbird?
You ain't ever gonna fly.
Why you wanna [B] fly, blackbird?
You ain't ever gonna [D#] fly.
No place big enough for holding all your tears you're gonna cry.
Cause your mama's name [N] was lonely and your daddy's name was pain.
And they call you little sorrow cause you'll never love again.
So why you wanna fly, blackbird?
You ain't ever gonna fly.
Why you wanna fly, blackbird?
You ain't ever gonna fly.
You ain't got no one to hold you.
You ain't got no one to care.
If you'd only understand it.
No one wants you anywhere.
So why you wanna fly, blackbird?
You ain't ever gonna fly.
Why you wanna fly, blackbird?
You ain't ever gonna fly.
[B] You ain't got no one to hold you.
You ain't got no [Dm] one to [B] care.
[F#] [B]
[N]
So why you wanna fly, blackbird?
You ain't ever gonna fly.
You ain't ever gonna fly.
