A Song for Me
                                         by: 
                                     Said the Whale
  
Capo 5

G                D       G 
Write a song for me, my love
          C             G
With your heart in your pen
     D            C     
Your poetry and a broken verse
    D      
The air that I breathe
         C      G       D   G
And your golden words


G               D      G
Sing a song for me, my love
          C             G
With your heart in your lungs
   D                C          
To carry your voice across the prairies 
    D        
And over the mountains
     C           
And back home to me   

G,D,G,C,G,D,C,D,C,G,D,G


G                        D       G 
And I'll sing a song for you, my love
        C              G
And the birds will all know
         D                       C
And I'll carry my heart through the shivering leaves
    D                    C      G    D  G
And over great lakes and inland sea
          D              C            G      D  G
And we'll carry my heart back home to thee
