[Intro]
G G

[Verse 1]
G G C C
I don't wanna drive a fancy car today
Bm Bm
I don't wanna ride in a red corvette
G G C C
I don't wanna jug my Saturday away
Bm Bm
But I don't wanna go home yet

[Verse 2]
G G C C
Today is not the day to jump out of a plane
Bm Bm
I don't wanna parasail or play roulette
G G C C
I don't wanna risk it all or go insane
Bm Bm
But I don't wanna go home yet

[Chorus]
G G
I don't wanna watch the birds go by
Bm Bm C C
From my handy foldable blue canvas throne
G G
I wanna watch them fly and fly
Bm Bm C C C#7 C#7
And see them soar up into the unknown

But I'd feel just like a nerd

Watching birds
Watching me here all alone
G G

[Verse 3]
C C
I don't wanna breakdance or learn taekwondo
Bm Bm
I don't wanna fish till all the fish are gone
G G C C
I don't wanna roller skate even if it's slow
Bm Bm
I don't wanna pass out in a marathon

[Verse 4]
G G C C
I don't like soccer, baseball track or field
Bm Bm
I'm not up for a match of polo
G G C C
I don't wanna seek or try to stay concealed
Bm Bm
I'm also not up for... water polo

[Chorus]
G G
I just wanna watch the birds up there
C C
Track the migratory patterns that they flow
G G
I wanna watch them from my chair
Bm Bm C C
With my binoculars, my latte and my phone

Trying to spot a lark in the park parked in nature all alone
G G

[Bridge]
D D C C Bm Bm C C
Alone here with the doves and the sparrows and the ospreys, the owlets, the eagles and mynas
D D C C Gadd9 Gadd9 D D
It's just me and mr finch, the robins, the kingfishers, the snipes, though I heard they don't exist
Bm Bm
Each little species and it's little way can teach me what awaits you if you can get away
G G
I wanna watch the birds do what they will
Bm Bm G G C C
Sorry if I'm ornithologically prone
G G
I wanna watch from somewhere undisturbing, quiet calm still
Bm Bm C C C#7 C#7
Sit right here and gaze at the unknown
C#maj7 C#maj7
I don't wanna fly in the sky, I just wanna be alone.
C#maj7 C#maj7 G G
I just wanna be alone
