Requiem

CAPO 3

C Am D G D Em Em/D

Well, I saw a bird today --- flying from a bush

C Am D Dsus4

and the wind blew it away.

Bm E7 A C#m F#m F#m/E

And the black-eyed mother sun scorched the butterfly at play

D Bm E E7/D

--- velvet veined. I saw it burn.

C Am G F Dm C

With a wintry storm-blown sigh, a silver cloud blew right on by.

G Em D Dsus4 G G/F# Em Em/D C

And, taking in the morning, I sang --- O Requiem.

(REST THE SAME)

Well, my lady told me, ``Stay.''

I looked aside and walked away along the Strand.

But I didn't say a word, as the train time-table blurred

close behind the taxi stand.

Saw her face in the tear-drop black cab window.

Fading in the traffic; watched her go.

And taking in the morning, heard myself singing ---

O Requiem.

Here I go again.

It's the same old story.

Well, I saw a bird today --- I looked aside and walked

away along the Strand.
