Crow

G  Dm  F  C

G                     Dm
 I think of you much more than
                   F                      C
I would like to admit that I do before strangers
              G
But there you are
                        Dm
Whistling through the trees again
                      F
Rustling through the leaves my friend
                 C                                   G  Dm  F  C
A feather on my pillow lets me know that you're near

G                           Dm
 I remember the night that you arrived
                F
December maybe '95
                     C                                G
Your hair and your breath smelled of John Player Specials
                  Dm
A stranger who I learned to love
                      F
A friend when really no one was
                 C
My Daedalus, my wings to fly
                 G        Dm   F   C
Why'd you leave me behind?

G               Dm
 My beautiful crow
                     F                           C
And all those black feathers perched deep in my soul
                       G   Dm   F   C
Won't let me, let you go

G                 Dm                       F
 I never really thanked you for all of the light
                     C
You brought into my mother's eyes
        G
So many others tried
                       Dm
Her sadness since the day you left
                 F
She will not get out of bed
                    C                              G
She stares out the window, smokes a black pack of JPS

G               Dm                         F
  I was out on Saint Paul's when I heard about your fall
              C                              G
Walking with Caroline, she bums smokes from time to time
                Dm
I walked home alone that night
                          F
I could feel you when I closed my eyes
               C                                             G          Dm    F  C
I looked up into the night and watched black feathers fall from the sky

G                     Dm                         F
 I think of you much more than I'm allowed to admit
         C         G
But I do, I still do

              Dm
My beautiful crow
                     F                           C
And all those black feathers perched deep in my soul
                       G   Dm   F   C
Won't let me, let you go

G                  Dm
  I have tried to push you down
                 F
I have tried to cut you out
                      C
You're rattling your cage
                 G
I'm rattling my cage
                  Dm
I have tried to drown you out
                    F
Drink till I don't hear the sound
                      C
The song's still the same
                      G
The song's still the same

              Dm
My beautiful crow
                     F                           C
And all those black feathers perched deep in my soul
                       G   Dm   F   C
Won't let me, let you go

G  Dm  F  C
