BIRD ON A WING
Written by Connie Kaldor
Verse 1:
GIf you buy her a dDream, she'll foGllow you anCywhere
To Gany old tAmruck stop that tGhis world might bDring.
She's a Gheart held dDown by tGhis little tCown
GShe's looking to fCind a bDird on a wGing.
CHORUS:
GBird on a wing, Cbird on a wing
She kGnows in her hAmeart she was Gdestined to Dfly.
Like a Gbird on a G7wing, Cbird on a wing
She's Gwaiting for yDou to fly Gby.
VERSE 2:
GShe makes a small Dhole in the Gfrost on the Cwindow
She's Glooking out Ampast old famGiliar tDhings.
ShGe lets her mind Dslip from the Gsmall change and Cnapkins
GHer heart's looking Cout for a Dbird on a Gwing.
CHORUS:
GBird on a wing, Cbird on a wing
She kGnows in her hAmeart she was Gdestined to Dfly.
Like a Gbird on a G7wing, Cbird on a wing
She's Gwaiting for yDou to fly Gby.
VERSE 3.
GShe stacks up the Dcups and countGs out the few Ctips
But she's Ghumming a Amtune that a Gdrifter might Dsing.
GShe gets to Dthinking that she's Gtired of Cwaiting
GMaybe she'll Cbe her own Dbird on a Gwing.
CHORUS:
GBird on a wing, Cbird on a wing
She kGnows in her hAmeart she was Gdestined to Dfly.
Like a Gbird on a G7wing, Cbird on a wing
She's Gwaiting for yDou to fly Gby.
                  G            D  C///G  
She's waiting for you to fly by
