There's a sGong that we cBmarry insAide

From the album Constant Companion

[INTRO]

D G C G D Bm A

[VERSE 1]

D G

The song of the bluebird

C G

Buried in the dust

D Bm A

Did you once hear how she cried?

G D

Though the years may have passed her

Bm Em

in tears and in laughter,

G Bm A

There's a song that she left behind

[VERSE 2]

D G

My father's own father

C G

Sailed through the air,

D Bm A

And he found enemies in the sky,

G D

But for all that surrounds us,

Bm Em

that anchors and binds us,

G Bm A

There's a song that we carry inside

[CHORUS]

G D Bm A

Oh, wi--ld is the wind in the night

G D Bm

Oh, wi--ld am I

G D Bm A

I wait until the day begins,

G D Bm

and wi--ld is my cry

[INTERLUDE]

D G C G D Bm A

G D Bm Em G Bm A

[VERSE 3]

D G

The song of the bluebird

C G

Carried on the wind,

D Bm A

Leaving our worries behind,

G D

Over highways and hilltops

Bm Em

where we long to go,

G Bm A

But a song is all we can find

[CHORUS]

G D Bm A

Oh, wi--ld is the wind in the night

G D Bm

Oh, wi--ld am I

G D Bm A

I wait until the day begins,

G D Bm

and wi--ld is my cry
