The birds of St Marks – Jackson Browne (CD: Solo acoustic Vol. 1)

Capo I

Intro:
|C |Am |Fmaj7 |G |
|C |Am |Fmaj7 |G |

C
Oh how sad they sound the songs the queen must sing of dying
Am F Am/E Dm G
A prisoner upon her throne of melancholy sighing
Dm Em
If she could see her mirror now
Dm Em
She would be free of those who bow and
F
Scrape the ground beneath her feet

C
Silently she walks among her dying midnight roses
Am F Am/E Dm G
Watches as each moment goes that never really know us
Dm Em
And so it seems she doesn't care
Dm Em
If she has dreams of no one there
F
Within the shadows of her room

C Am
But all my frozen words agree, and say it's time to
Em Dm Em Dm F
Call back, all the birds i sent to
G
Fly behind her castle walls, and I'm
C F
Weary of the nights I've seen
G C
Inside these empty halls

Interlude:
|C |Am |Fmaj7 |G |
|C |Am |Fmaj7 |G |

C
Wooden lady turn and turn among my weary secrets
Am F Am/E Dm G
And wave within the hours past and other empty pockets
Dm Em
Maybe we've found what we have lost
Dm Em
When we've unwound so many crossed entangling
F
Misunderstandings; but


C Am
But all my frozen words agree, and say it's time to
Em Dm Em Dm F
Call back, all the birds I sent to
G
Fly behind her castle walls, and I'm
C F
Weary of the nights i've seen
G C
Inside these empty halls


Coda:
|C |Am |Fmaj7 |G |
|C |Am |Fmaj7 |G |
