Key: E minor
Verse 1
Em
I sit in my cell, and I stare at the floor,
Em
C
B
The song of a bird from an old yesterday
Em
D
C
B
The bird that he found unable to fly
Em
D
Alone in the cold,
C
D
Em
almost ready to die
I'm a man who once killed,
a man who must dwell
C
F
for the rest of my life, all alone in
C
Em
G
A poor little bird he
Em
C
And held it and nursed it
D
Em
until it was well
For the rest of my life
there'd be six iron bars
C
B
too fearful to try.
Em
D
Then the bird drew strength
G
Em
from a man who was strong
Am
D
And soon spread its wings
B
Em
and it burst into song
I sit in my cell and I stare at the floor
The walls, the ceiling,
C
Em
the bars on the door
Em
C
B
The song of a bird from an old yesterday.
Em
D
At times he can hear,
C
B
far away, far away,
Em
D
C
D
The song of a bird from an old yesterday.
Em
How did you like the song?
