Nice song that has been written and performed by Emm Gryner. This version is a closer
to the "Blackwinged Bird" performed by Nina Persson (The Cardigans) for The Cake Sale
album.
ADA
Night cant come quick enough
DC#m
My faults shine in the sun
F#mD
A train bridge of spies
E
watches all the cars collide
ADA
I roll my green sleeves over ruby
DC#m
I dont blame you for doing it to me
F#mD
Real girls dont take aim
E
like kings do these days
DA
I made my mind up to be a black-winged bird
DA
Never turn my head for how things were
DC#m7
Leave the bluest skies for boys to burn
C#m7D
And Ill soar on my way
AC#mD
Sad as the state of things we cant change
ADA
Now were paper dolls all aflame
DC#m
In houses that all look the same
F#mD
Rows of regret
E
An arson for a wilderness
ADA
I hide my saints in the willow trunk
DC#m
Yeah You started me on this junk
F#mD
Now my black lungs are blue
E
But I?m still singing to you.
F#m
I?m still singing to you
Solo: (F#m) D A E x2
DA
I made my mind up to be a black-winged bird
DA
Never turn my head for how things were
DE
Leave the bluest skies for boys to burn
(F#m) DAE
