Tom:
Verse 1
E
Black bird, why you wearin' that frown?
                     A                  A/G
Well, don't ya know Jesus loves you and me
and the preacher on TV your puttin' down?
E
Blackbird, how I love to hear your songs.
                     A                  A/G
Well, I could spend all my time in the shade of a tree
And listen all day long.
A-G-E
Whoa yeah

I could listen
A-G-E
All day long
A-G-E
Chorus
                G                  D
Whoa but your ever hearing, never understanding,
       A                                  E
Yea I see you're not percieving and your heart has grown calloused
G                       D
You're in a storm and lost your way,
           A
Won't you fly to heaven and be saved today.
Verse 2
E
Blackbird, now you've broken your wings.
                A
You try to fly high, but you know that
     A/G
You can't go anywhere, you can't do anything.
E
Blackbird, who put you in your cage?
                A
Tell me was it God or was it you
         A/G
Or was it me, well I guess it don't matter anyway.

You say you need a rememdy,
For the thorn in your pride
                          A
I think it's such a tragedy
          A    G     E
That you left Him behind!
You say you light your candle
But your love light doesn't shine.
                        A
You say you talk to angels
        A           G      E
Well, I say that's such a lie.

A G E           A G E                     A G E
such a lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie.
