Verse 1
G 
When I was eight I had a friend
Em 
G 
With a pirate smile
Make believe and play pretend
We were innocent and wild
Hopped a fence and
slammed the gate
Em 
G 
Running down my alleyway
C 
G 
Am 
G 
In time to watch Sally's
Am 
G 
pigeons fly
C 

Verse 2
G 
C 
G 
We loved to watch them dive and soar
Em

Circle in the sky
Free as a bird from three to four
Am

Em 
And never knowing why
G

Neighbors pulled their wash back in
G 
Put away my Barbie and Ken

Look out overhead

Verse 3

I had a fool's confidence

Dsus4

That the world had no boundaries

But instincts and common sense

Come in different quantities

Verse 4
My heart began to skip to the beat
Am 
G 
Of the boy next door
She had her eye across the street
Am 
D 
On someone shy and tall
Em 
We lived our dreams
G 
And challenged fate
Em 
G 
In tears she told me she was late
C 
Am 
F 
Dsus4 
And Sally let his pigeons out to
F 
fly

Verse 5
D 
Mhm Oh
G 
On the dresser sits a frame
Em 
G 
With a photograph
Two little girls in ponytails
Am 
D 
Some twenty one years back
Em 
G 
She left one night with just a nod
Em 
G 
Was lost from some back alley job
C 
Am 
F 
I close my eyes and
Dsus4 
F 
Sally's pigeons    fly
Em 
G 
She never saw those birds again
Em 
G 
And me, I can't remember when
C 
Am 
F 
Dsus4 
F 
A pirate smile hasn't made me cry
C 
Am 
I close my eyes
F 
Dm 
F 
G 
And Sally's pigeons fly
