[Intro]

[Verse 1]
---------------------
D                    Am                 G                  D
 Sitting under the cypress tree I saw a miracle flying high
                     C                   D
I tuned into the song that she was singing
                    Am                 G                              D
The melody was an honest friend and it felt like I was learning to fly
                C                    D
But I fear I'll never know the feeling

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Bm
  It must be nice
F#7
   To just be heard
D                  A          Bm
 And it might sound a bit absurd
D              A           Bm
 I'd sing along with the birds
D              A6      Gadd9
 I'd sing along  if I only knew the words
D              A           G                  D       Em7
 I'd sing along with the birds, if I only knew    the words 

[Interlude]
---------------------
D | Am | G | D | C | D 

[Verse 2]
---------------------
D                   Am                     G                       D
 Staring into the wishing well has got you feeling a particular way
                      C               D
You can't stand to see your own reflection
                         Am              G                               D
So toss a penny and close  your eyes and try to think of something to say
                             C             D
You don't wanna waste your wishes on perfection

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Bm
  It must be nice
F#7
   To just be heard
D                  A          Bm
 And it might sound a bit absurd
D              A           Bm
 I'd sing along with the birds
D              A6      Gadd9
 I'd sing along  if I only knew the words
D              A           G                  D
 I'd sing along with the birds, if I only knew    the words

[Bridge]
---------------------
Em7                    F#m         C                   D
   I'd master every verse until my spirit learned to burst
                 D F#7 C
Into the morning su___n
               G         D
While my heart is on the run



[Solo (Strings)]
---------------------
D | Am | G | D | C | D 

[Verse 3]
---------------------
D                       Am7                       G                    D
 All the wind in the whistlin' world could whip a whisper any given day
                         C             D
Just to see if there was anyone to listen
                       Am7             G                           D
They say the April rain   will fall to resurrect the flowers of May
                           C                 D
You can't know who you love until you miss them

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
Bm
  It must be nice
F#7
   To just be heard
D                  A          Bm
 And it might sound a bit absurd
D              A           Bm
 I'd sing along with the birds
D              A6      Gadd9
 I'd sing along  if I only knew the words
D              A           G                  D         Em7
 I'd sing along with the birds, if I only knew    the words
