Intro
C#
Spoken:
Birds fall from the window ledge above mine
Then they flap their wings at the last second
C# F# G# C# F# G#
[Verse]
C# F# G# C#
You see, birds fall from the window ledge above mine
F# G# C# F# G# C# F# G#
Then they flap their wings at the last second
C# F# G#
I can see their dead weight
C# F#
Just dropping like stones
G# C# F# G#
Or small loaves of bread
C# F# G#
Past my window all the time
C# F# G# C#
But unless I get up
F# G#
Walk across the room
C# F# G# C#
And peer down below
F# G# C#
I
F# G# C# F#
Don't see their last-second curves
G# C# F#
Toward a horizontal flight
G# C# F# G# C# F# G#
All these birds just falling from the ledge like stones
C# F# G#
Now due to a construct in my mind
C# F# G#
That makes their falling and their flight
C# F# G# C# F#
Symbolic of my entire existence
G# C# F# G#
It becomes important for me
C# F#
To get up and see
G# C# F# G# C#
Their last-second curves toward flight
F# G# C# F#
It's almost as if my life would fall
G# C# F# G#
Unless I see their ascent
[Chorus]

C# F# G# C# F# G#

[Verse 2]
C# F# G# C#
Birds fall from the window ledge above mine
F# G# C# F# G# C# F# G#
Then they flap their wings at the last second
C# F# G# C#
I said, birds fall from the window ledge above mine
C# F# G# C#
But unless I get up
F# G#
Walk across the room
C# F# G# C#
And peer down below
F# G# C#
I
F# G# C# F#
Won't see their last-second curves
G# C# F#
Toward a horizontal flight
G# C# F# G# C# F# G#
All these birds just falling from the ledge like stones
C# F# G#
Now due to a construct in my mind
C# F# G#
That makes their falling and their flight
C# F# G# C# F#
Symbolic of my entire existence
G# C# F# G#
It becomes important for me
C# F#
To get up and see
G# C# F# G# C#
Their last-second curves toward flight
F# G# C# F# G#
It's almost as if my life would fall
C#
My life would fall
F# G# C# F# G#
Unless I see their
C# F# G# C# F# G#
Ascent
