Another gem from Beast Epic. The studio version is played in open tuning with many hammer-ons, picking and
incomplete chords. This is just how I play it in standard tuning.
[Verse 1]
FSongbirds in the Gmmorning, hCsus2ad my    Fhead Flost in the Gmtall trees
I knew wBbell, well I would Fsay
Dreaming my Cdry     Bbweeds
FStray light finds its Gmway to Csus2all      of Fus
FSay something Gmgreen, it comes Csus2back
BbSign light on my Flips, let 'em kiss, Cdark Bbleaves
Let the Bbhands of the wrong prophets Bb/Aheal me all they Gmadd4should
Let the Bbwine of the poison Bb/AJesus says tastes Gmadd4good
And Call those trees lay Bbdown if you were a Fbird and fell into my Farms
[Chorus]
If I Dmwrote your song in Bbstone
If I Dmwore your wings back Bbhome
Where the Dmdreams in the backwater Cdrown us Bbfar from Fhome
[Verse 2]
GivFe this to the Gmgray, it Csus2comes back gFold
FBirds of the Gmmorning, Csus2they may kBbnow
BbKnow more than Fus, giving their hCymns for lBbife
Let the wBbaves on the wrong water Bb/Asay what they will Gmadd4say
While the Bbwind and the broken Bb/Abranches blow me aGmadd4way
CAll tall tree lay doBbwn if you were the Fbird who fell into my Farms
[Chorus]
I could Dmwrite your song in sBbtone
I could Dmwear your wings back Bbhome
Where the Dmdreams in the backwater Cdrown us Bbfar from hFome
