D The birds they sang, at break of day. G Start again, I hear them say. C#dim7 D It's so hard to just walk away. The birds they sang, all a choir. Start again, a little higher. It's a spark in a sea of grey Chorus: Em The sky is blue. Dream that lie, 'til it's true. A Then taking back the punch I threw. Em My arms turn wings. Oh those clumsy things. A7 G Send me up to that wonderful world. Em7 A7 D And then I'm up with the birds. D Bm D Bm Might have to go where they don't know my name. G Float all over the world, just to see her again. D Bm D Bm But I won't show or feel any pain. G Even though all my armo(u)r might rust in the rain. Chorus: Em7 A simple plot, but I know one day, G D Bm7 D Bm7 good things are coming our way. Em7 A simple plot, but I know one day, G D Bm7 D Bm7 good things are coming our way.
