Speckled Bird

capo 2nd

intro: Em C Em C Em C D   2X


Verse:
EM            C          Em         C            Em
You blow the candle out, you take a shovel to my head
          C            D
Hey I appreciate that sound
Em           C          Em          C                Em
A true tone resonating, so now I'm less alive than dead
          C             D
And maybe I won't hang around   tonight

Chorus       G       C     F       Em
        Cause I'm already dying, already flying
      F               Em               D
        Seems like I'm flying toward the sun
               G        C     F       Em
        Yes I'm already dying, already flying
        F               Em               D
        In my dreams I'm flying toward the sun

Verse 2:
Em          C                 Em       C           Em
I'm flying through the heavens a tabernacle to my soul
             C             D
You know I'd take you if I could
Em          C               Em           C             Em
No I can't save your sorry soul I only want to be the one
              C                  D
To kiss your spirit from face to foot

Chorus

Verse 3
Em           C      Em          C            Em
You put the fire out you take a shovel to my head
        C             D
hey I appreciate that sound
Em           C        Em          C               Em
A true tone resonating so now I'm less alive than dead
         C                    D
Speckled birds of prey coming down


Chorus 2X

Outro:  Em C Em C Em C D

The fills between the verses are the same Em-C-D combinations.  This is a really easy song.
