[C#m]

[B] [E]
[G#] [A] [B]
[E] [G#m] [C#m]
[G#] Oh, [C#]
[C#m] the [C#] falcon
[C#m] was a pretty [C#] bird, [A] wondered [E] as [G#] she flew.
[A] She [B] danced around [C#m] and pranced around [G#] wherever the [C#m] warm winds blew.
And the falcon was a pretty bird, [A] her [E] voice was always [G#] still.
[A] But men [Bm] with [C#m] drums and men with guns, [G#] they taught her how [C#m] to kill.
Her eye was on the sparrow, [A] her [G#m] mind was on [E] the
[G#] dove.
[A] But no [G#] one cared and [E] no [C#] one dared [G#] to speak to [C#m] her up.
Her [C#] eyes are always [G#] hooded, [A] her [C#] claws are [B] [C#m] sharp as [G#] steel.
[A] We teach [B] her not [C#m] to see too much, [G#] we teach her not [C#] to feel.
[C#m]
Go
[A] [B]
[E] [G#]
[A] [B] [E]
[C#m] [G#]
[C#m]
build you a log cabin [A] on a [Bm] mountain [E] so
[G#] high.
[A] And hear the [C#m] feathered warbirds yell [G#] as she goes screaming [C#]
by.
She'll tease you, [C#m] she'll please you, [A] she'll [E] satisfy your [G#] needs.
[A] But [B] someday she [C#m] might turn around [G#] and maul the hand [C#m] that feeds.
Your hours might be [G#] numbered, [A] your [E] end might come [G#] someday.
Go [A] [B] break her [C#m] chain and free her brain [G#] and send her on.
[C#]
[C#m] And the falcon is a pretty bird, [A] [E] wonders as she [G#] flies.
[Am] She [B] asks us [C#m] easy questions, [G#] we tell her [C#] easy lies.
