Verse
C#
I'm tired of this place
D#m
I need to get away
G#
It's time for me to go now
C#
I can't stay
C#
No no no no
I'm like a bird
D#m
I need to spread my wings
G#
Fly over the ocean
C#7
See what the new day brings
Cause I'm a seagull
C#
Yeah
[Verse Analysis]
C#
(What the singer's trying to say here
D#m7 D#m
Is that he's stifled in some ways
G#
Feeling hindered or
Imprisoned by his current situation
C#
And he uses the metaphor of being a seagull
Of wanting to be free)
[Verse]
C#
I wanna fly
Fly into the sky and
D#m
Catch a summer breeze
Soar above the clouds
G#
And let my soul be free
C#
Yeah, cause I'm a seagull
C#
Yeah, yeah, yeah
C#
I'm seagull
[Verse Analysis]
D#m
(In the second verse he mentions a summer breeze
G#
And I believe this is a construct
Allowing him to be free of his problems
C#
Sees himself being untethered from
C#
He'd rather avoid responsibility
C#
Or let something else take control
C#
Of his destiny
And he sees that as similar to being a seagull)
[Verse]
C#
I can't stay here, I can't stay here
D#m
On this cold little rock
It's for me to go
G#7
Yeah, my mind's made up
C#
It's the mind of a seagull
C#
Yeah, yeah, yeah
C#
I'm a seagull, I got the mind of a seagull
[Verse Analysis]
C#
(In this verse he mentions a rock
D#m
I believe the rock represents you
G#
The person in the relationship with the singer
C#
And by saying you're like a rock
C#
He means that you're hard, cold and emotionally impenetrable
C#
Unlike him, the freewheeling seagull)
[Verse]
C#
The tide is rising up
D#m
The tide is rising, it's my time to go
And glide across the sky
G#
See the world below
C#
Yeah, yeah, 'cause I'm still a seagull
C#
Yeah, yeah, yeah
C#
I'm, I'll always be a seagull
[Verse Analysis]
D#m
(The image of the tide rolling in or rising up
Of course, represents the feeling of doom
G#
G# feeling of being drowned
C#
And that's what he thinks being in the relationship
C#
With you is like)
[Verse]
I need to leave this rock behind
D#m7 D#m
There's something more I seek
G# G#7
I wanna feel the warmth of the morning sun
Across my beak, yeah
C#
I'm a seagull
C#
Yeah, yeah, yeah
C#
I've got a beak because I'm a seagull
[Verse Analysis]
D#m
(In the last two verses we've established that you are the rock
G#
The beak mentioned in this verse is clearly a phallic metaphor
C#
It's obviously his cock
And he wishes to travel to more sexually abundant locations)
[Bridge]
D#m
I'm a seagull
D#m7 D#m C#
G# seagull I will always be
D#m
Dive into the ocean

C#7
I'm a seagull

C#
I've gotta lift this keyboard
D#m
I've gotta lift it with my hopeless wings
Damn this feathered things, oh
G#7
Oh, they're the curse
C#
The curse of being a seagull
C#
Yeah, yeah, yeah
C#
(Not quite sure what he means here)
One day I've found this old piano
D#m
Found it on this cold little rock
G#
Since that day I've been playing non-stop, yeah
'Cause I'm a piano
C#
Piano-playing seagull
C#
Yeah, yeah
C#
Who sometimes shits on people
C#
[Verse Analysis]
(Oh, we'll have to re-evaluate
D#m
I think what he's actually trying to say is
G#
Those aren't metaphors, he is actually a seagull
C#
Sorry, it's not about a guy who wants to be like a seagull
It's an actual seagull)
[Verse]
