D-|--------------6-----4-----3-----------------|
A-|--------------------------------------------|
E-|---1-2---3----4-----2-----1-----------------|
Ab Gb F
Right now I feel like a bird
Ab Gb F
Caged without a key
Ab Gb F
Everyones comes stearing me
Ab Gb F
With so much joy and revelry
Bbm Ab Eb*
e-|--------------------------------------------|
b-|--------------6-----4-----8-----------------|
g-|--------------6-----5-----8-----------------|
D-|--------------8-----6-----8-----------------|
A-|--------------------------6-----------------|
E-|---3-4---5----6-----4-----------------------|
Bbm Ab Eb
They don't know how I feel inside
Bbm Ab Eb
Through my smile I cry
Bbm Ab Eb
They don't know what they do to me
Bbm Ab Eb
Keeping me from flyin'
(Thats why I say that)
Ab Gb F
I know why the caged bird sings
Bbm Ab Eb
Only joy comes from song
Ab Gb F
She's so rare and beautiful to others
Bbm Ab Eb
Why not just set her free
Ab Gb F
So she can fly, fly, fly
Ab Gb F
Spreadin' her wings and her song
Ab Gb F
Let her fly, fly, fly
Bbm Ab Eb
For the whole world to see
[interlude]
Ab Gb F
Ab Gb F
Ab Gb F
She's like a caged bird
Ab Gb F
Fly fly
Ab Gb F
Oh, she's a little fly, She's a little fly, She's a little fly
Ab Gb Fmaj7**
Spread wings, Spread beauty
* you may want to try varying the Eb by using x6888x, x6534x, or 3x134x
** you may want to finger the Fmaj7 with 1x221x, x 8 10 9 10 x, or x8755x
Tips: Watch the third verse, since it alternates between the two chord progressions, you
want to use the two lead-ins alternatively during that verse.
