Verse:

Dm                G          C        F
   I'm just a dreamer but I'm hanging on
Dm             G              C       F
   Though I am nothing big to offer
Dm              G              C            F
   I watch the birds, how they dive in then gone
          E                F            G4   G
It's like nothing in this world's ever still

Dm                G          C               F
   And I'm just a shadow of your thoughts in me
Dm               G             C         F
   But sun is setting, shadows growing
Dm             G             C       F
   A long cast figure will turn into night
          E                F          G4   G
It's like nothing in this world ever sleeps


Chorus:

   C             F              G        C     ( C/B )
Oh sometimes the blues is just a passing bird
    Am             F        G4   G
And why can't that always be
C       F              G        C     ( C/B )
Tossing aside from your birches crown
Am          F         G4   G
Just enough dark to see
N.C.
How you're the light over me

Dm G C F x2

Verse:
And by your side, girl, where the acres grow
Into the strong and stunning meadow
A cowboy stumbling in the finest field
And nothing good out there won't be old

Chorus:
Oh sometimes the blues is just a passing bird
And why can't that always be
Tossing aside from your birches crown
Just enough dark to see
How you're the light over me

(same as chorus)
C F G C ( C/B )
Am F G4 G

Chorus:
Sometimes the blues is just a passing bird
And why can't that always be
Tossing aside from your birches crown
Just enough dark to see
How you're the light over me

(same as the intro)
Dm G C F x6
