Intro
 Em   D   C   Gx2
        Em        D              C   G(for every verse)
We're so dark by night, I am lost
directions getting faded remember what you're taught
she's so bright, i'll use her as light
she's so much more than decoration
She can fly, and shes no angel in the sky
she's a witch but she knows better not to take me when she flys
and i miss how she looks me in the eyes
oh this sounds like desperation
            C-G-Em-        D  C-G-Em-D  
if you're a bird then i'm a bird
*but if you cant fly then neither will i
*cause then love is not the right time, to die
Emher wings aDre spread, Cshe's stuck here on the Gground
she's not Emheavy, she's my Dworld
Ci'll carry her aGround
Emi hear her Dbreathing, tChat's my favorite Gsound
(Same as other chorus)
if you're a bird then i'm a bird
but if you cant fly then neither will i
cause then love is not the right time to die
Bridge
(Same chords as chorus)
we still have our whole life to be with you and im done
and make this life a good one
*(Same chord progression but strumming changes and so does the chord variation, listen 
song to figure it out)

We're so dark by night, I am lost

directions getting faded remember what you're taught

she's so bright, i'll use her as light

she's so much more than decoration

She can fly, and shes no angel in the sky

she's a witch but she knows better not to take me when she flys

and i miss how she looks me in the eyes

oh this sounds like desperation

*but if you cant fly then neither will i

*cause then love is not the right time, to die

Em D C G

her wings are spread, she's stuck here on the ground

Em D

she's not heavy, she's my world

C G

i'll carry her around

(Same as other chorus)

if you're a bird then i'm a bird

cause then love is not the right time to die

Bridge

we still have our whole life to be with you and im done

and make this life a good one
