One Less Bird

C
Summer night, we were seventeen
                              G
When she said “I love you but baby I’m leaving
C                                          F
Come tomorrow you come and see me when you can.”
C
We had some times, yeah we had some life here
                     G
Remember driving all through the night
             C
And we would talk like someday
                                F
We'd stop somewhere and make it home
    C          G            Am        G     F
But time rolls on, and it’s time that I let you

F                        C
Some will run back while some run free
          Am                     G
Some will pack their bags up and chase down dreams and
     F                  C                    F
They used to say if you love someone let her fly
                      C                  G        C
All I know is there’s one less bird here   tonight

C
One less weekend, one less picture
                     G
One less day-trip to laugh about later and
C                    F                          Am
One more moment that takes you farther out from me
F             C            G
They say that distance can grow your heart
    C                         F              G
But every day spent away just makes you feel farther

F                        C
Some will run back while some run free
          Am                     G
Some will pack their bags up and chase down dreams and
     F                  C                    F
They used to say if you love someone let her fly
                      C
All I know is there’s one less bird here tonight

C
I won’t say, I won’t say, can’t you just stay, don’t fly away

F                        C
Some will run back while some run free
          Am                     G
Some will pack their bags up and chase down dreams and
     F                  C                    F
They used to say if you love someone let her fly
F                        C
Some will run back while some run free
          Am                     G
Some will pack their bags up and chase down dreams and
     F                  C                    F
They used to say if you love someone let her fly
                      C
All I know is there’s one less bird here tonight
        F        C                    G           C
There’s one less bii-i-i-i-rd in this lonely cage tonight
