Verse 1
Bb
Eb
This is the story of a wingless bird.
Bb
Gm
She lived with three ordinary birds
Eb
in a cage, so I heard.
Bb
Her home was the floor of the cage,
Eb
Bb
and theirs high on their perch.
Gm
But they would sing of the wonders
Bb
Eb
Bb
they'd seen and they'd heard.
The cage was their prison,
Eb
Bb
freedom was their fate
Gm
So the wingless one listened
Eb
Bb
as the oth ers' plans were made
One day the cage was open,
Eb
Bb
the first bird escaped
Gm
He got chased around the house
Eb
Bb
Till he was caught, his dreams betrayed
Gm
Bb
That was the end of the first
Eb
Bb
bird's escapade
Gm
She said, isn't it strange
Bb
Eb
Bb
how in this day and age
Bb
Eb
Bb
like birds in a cage
The second bird waited till
Eb
Bb
the mo ment was right
Gm
He fled the cage out the front door
Bb
Eb
Bb
and into the night
Into the wide open sky,
Eb
Bb
oh the sweet gift of flight
Gm
He flew back to get his friends,
Bb
Eb
Bb
oh follow me I'll be your guide
Gm
That's when he hit the window,
Eb
Bb
broke his wings and his pride
The third bird he watched
Eb
Bb
as this all went on
Gm
He said, escape is impossible,
Eb
Bb
I'll stay here but I'm gone
So his body remained,
Eb
Bb
but his heart was withdrawn
Gm
Bb
He just sat on his perch,
Eb
Bb
and he nev er sang his song
Bb
touched him from that moment on
Gm
She said, is n't it strange
Bb
Eb
Bb
how in this day and age
Bb
Eb
Bb
like birds in a cage
The cats knocked the lid
Eb
Bb
off the cage last night
Bb
Eb
Bb
the others died of fright
Except for the wingless one,
Eb
Bb
she was alright
Bb
Eb
though she knew she couldn't fly,
Bb
couldn't fight
Gm
She just stood in the corner
Eb
Bb
and stayed out of sight
The fourth bird, the wingless bird,
Eb
Bb
nev er tried to flee
Gm
So the floor of the cage
Bb
Eb
Bb
was all that she'd ever see
Gm
She said, isn't it strange
Eb
Bb
Eb
how in this day and age
Bb
Gm
We rail against our lives
Eb
Gm
like we're birds in a cage
I'm a wingless bird,
Eb
Bb
that's all I'll ever be
Gm
And the cats may come hunting,
Cm
Bb
Eb
Bb
but they'll nev er find me
Gm
Eb
Cause I may live in this cage
Bb
Eb
But my soul flies free
