C
Spoken:
Birds fall from the window ledge above mine
Then they flap their wings at the last second

[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]
