Too Many Birds Lyrics

Bill Callahan Too Many Birds Lyrics

Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle
Tuned a whole step down
Chords: (names relative to tuning)
us
The whole song is this chord progression:
Too many birds in one tree
Too many birds in one tree
The sky is full of black and screaming leaves
The sky is full of black and screaming
And one more bird, then one more bird
And one last bird, and another
One last blackbird, without a place to land
One last blackbird without a place to be
Turns around, in hopes to find
The place it last knew rest
Oh blackbird, black rain burn
This is not where you last knew rest
You fly all night, to sleep on stone
That heartless rest that in the morn will be gone
You fly all night to sleep on stone
To return to the tree with
Too many birds, too many birds, too many birds
If, if you, if you could
If you could only
If you could only stop
If you could only stop your
If you could only stop your heart
If you could only stop your heartbeat
If you could only stop your heartbeat for
If you could only stop your heartbeat for one heart
If you could only stop your heartbeat for one heartbeat
End on G.
