Ok...now the song...
Verse 1
[E]Black bird, why you wearin' that frown?
Well, don't ya know J[A]esus loves you and [A/G]me
and the preacher on TV your puttin' down?
[E]Blackbird, how I love to hear your songs.
Well, I could spend a[A]ll my time in the s[A/G]hade of a tree
And listen all day long.
[A-G-E] Whoa yeah
[A-G-E] I could listen
[A-G-E] All day long
[A-G-E]
Chorus
Whoa but your ev[G]er hearing, never u[D]nderstanding,
Yea I s[A]ee you're not percieving and your h[E]eart has grown calloused
[G]You're in a storm and lo[D]st your way,
Won't you f[A]ly to heaven and be saved today.
Verse 2
[E]Blackbird, now you've broken your wings.
You try to fly h[A]igh, but you know that
You c[A/G]an't go anywhere, you can't do anything.
[E]Blackbird, who put you in your cage?
Tell me was it G[A]od or was it you
Or was it[A/G] me, well I guess it don't matter anyway.
[A-G-E] Whoa no no
[A-G-E] It don't matter
[A-G-E] No no anyway
[A-G-E]
Chorus
[E-A] Whoa yeah

A-G-E X5

[A-G-E]
[A-G-E]
You say you need a rememdy,
For the thorn in your pride
I think it's such a traged[A]y
That you l[A]eft H[G]im beh[E]ind!
You say you light your candle
But your love light doesn't shine.
You say you talk to ange[A]ls
Well, I [A]say that's s[G]uch a l[E]ie.
[A-G-E] Yes it is now
A-G-E A-G-E A-G-E
such a lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie.
Chorus
[E-A] Whoa yeah
[E-A] Blackbird[E-A]
[A-G-E]
[A-G-E]
If anyone knows the guitar solo, I am very interested in knowing what it
is. But I am still a young musician, so I'm not really good at figuring
that kind of stuff out. Well, God Bless!
