Cmaj7 Cmaj7 G G
I just want to watch the birds go by
Cm6 Cm6 Cmaj7 Cmaj7
from my handy foldable blue canvas throne
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 G G
I wanna watch them fly & fly
Cm6 Cm6 Cmaj7 Cmaj7
& see them soar up into the unknown

but I'd feel just like a nerd

watching birds
G G
watching me here all alone

I'm also not up for... water polo


Cmaj7 Cmaj7 G G
I just wanna watch the birds up there
Cm6 Cm6 Cmaj7 Cmaj7
track the migratory patterns that they've flown
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 G G
I wanna watch them from my chair
Cm6 Cm6 Cmaj7 Cmaj7
with my binoculars, my latte & my phone
C C
trying to spot a lark
Cm Cm
in the park
G G
parked in nature all alone


D D
alone here with the doves
Cmaj7 Cmaj7
the sparrows, the ospreys
Em Em Cmaj7 Cmaj7
the owlets, the egrets & my list

it's just me & Mr. Finch
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 D D
the robins, the kingfishers, the snipes
D7 D7
though I heard they don't exist
C C Cm Cm
each little specie in its little way can teach me
Em Em F F
what awaits you if you can get away

I wanna watch the birds do what they will
Cm6 Cm6 Cmaj7 Cmaj7
sorry if I'm ornithologically prone
Cmaj7 Cmaj7
I wanna watch from somewhere undisturbing
G G
quiet, calm, still
Cm6 Cm6 Cmaj7 Cmaj7
sit right here & gaze at the unknown
C C Cm Cm
I don't wanna fly in the sky
C C
I just wanna be alone
G G
It's not a big deal or anything
C C
I just wanna be
G G
Alone
