Cuckoo Song
A Silent Film
C G
I won’t be your cuckoo, my love
Em C
Nor a thief on the wing
C G
A shameful regret
Em D
Or a promise on a string
C G
And I will follow your heart
Am Em
Until you let me in
C G
I’ll never be your cuckoo, my love
D C
I won’t be a lesson learned in spring
(C), G, Em, C

C G
Don’t be a cuckoo, my love
Em C
If you ever want to know
C G
The beat of your heart
Em D
Or the depth of your soul
C G
And I will colour my life
Am Em
With the courage that you’ve shown me
C G
To never be a cuckoo, my love
D C G Em C
Oh, I will take this wish and bury it in the sno-o-o-ow
C, G, Em, D

The river you didn’t cross
D Em
Grows deeper every day
Em C
And for the rest of my life
C G
Are you the one that got away?
G D
‘Fore we grow old
D Em
Will you show me the depths of your soul?
Em C
Though we clip your wings
C C G Em C
Well I will build a home with the courage that you have sho-o-o-own
C, G, Em, D
C, G, Am, Em
C, G, D
C G
So put down your bow and arrow
Em C
‘Cause time is on our side
C G
And I will be here in the morning
Em C
If there are fireworks tonight
C G
Is this the calm before the storm?
Am Em
The design is in your eyes
C G
I’ll never be a cuckoo, my love
D C G
Oh, I will take this wish and bury it in the snow
D C G
And I will build a home with the courage that you have shown
D C G
And I will take this wish and bury it in the snow

If you cross this river

I’m yours and yours alone
