Capo 1

[INTRO]

[G] [Em] [C] [G] (2x)

[G] [C] [G] (2x)

Pe[G]ople they can be [C]so unk[G]ind
If they're not ha[C]ppy, if they can't speak their m[G]ind
But unwind the n[Em]eedle just to f[G]ind
One more l[Em]ine,[D] one more l[G]ine [C] [G]

Pe[G]ople they got som[C]ething to s[G]ay
They can be car[C]ried or be carried aw[G]ay
But it takes bricks and mo[Em]rtar, to speak your m[G]ind
So keep putting 'em d[Em]own,[D] put 'em do[G]wn [C]

That bird had s[G]ong to sing, so[C]mething to s[G]ay
Is it still he[C]re? Or has it flown a[G]way?
This mo[Em]rning it had something to s[G]ay
Is it still h[Em]ere?[D] Or has it flown a[G]way? [C] [G]

It rem[G]inds of a time where my mem[C]ories[G] fade
Thoughts ain't sh[C]arp unless they're l[G]aid
But if I can't rem[Em]ember will I feel it ag[G]ain?
All I need's a piece of p[Em]aper[D] and p[G]en [C] [G]

But you can take a ph[C]otograph, or you can just be t[G]here
Do you need to reme[C]mber? Or can you ju[G]st be there?
If I kept my pro[Em]mise, would we still be fr[G]iends?
If I remem[C]bered would I feel it a[D]gain?

That bird had s[G]ong to sing, so[C]mething to s[G]ay
Is it still he[C]re? Or has it flown a[G]way?
This mo[Em]rning it had something to s[G]ay
Is it still h[Em]ere?[D] Or has it flown a[G]way? [C] [G]

Sometimes I que[G]stion and I wonder how I j[C]ust can s[G]ing
Anger can take o[C]ver mine, 'till it's carried aw[G]ay
But it's just not t[Em]here, it don't make no s[G]ense
But I wrote it d[Em]own[D] , I wrote it do[C]wn

[G]
