Blackbird
Verse I
Dm E Am
He put the coffee in the cup and with milk he filled it up
Dm E7 Am
He added sugar and I never knew he liked it like that
Dm E Am
He took his coat from the hook and his scarf and his hat
Dm E7 Am
And he put down a key and said I wont be needing that
Am
(Instrument)
Dm E7 Am
And he turned and smiled and said that explained it all
Dm E Am
And he walked down the hall and he opened the door
Dm E F
And said Ill call, Ill call
Chorus
C G Dm Am
Ahh haa Why do I bring you love
C G E7
When all you give me back is pain
C G Dm Am
Haa ahh Why do we search it out
C G E7
To watch you wash your hands and walk away

Dm Em
Were like the strangers we were
C
When we first met

But the pain in strangers had the end

And all that remains is a day without plans

The loneliness and the forever lost
