Verse 1

            C
We've been down this road before,
      F
maybe just too many times
         C
we could sit, watch, wait and bleed
         G
we could give it another try

          C
maybe you won't find it tomorrow
          F
maybe you won't find it at all
         C
maybe it will come to you
       G                  C
maybe someone hears your call


Chorus

          F                C
And now I know why caged birds sing
         G
there is hope for all of us
                  C
you just have to keep believing in
          F      C 
and now I know-ooh, 
       G                  C
now I know why caged birds sing


Verse 2

And if the door would be wide open
would you stay and
just think twice
would you'd be happy with all you got
wouldn't you maybe
change your mind

and sometimes it can be better
some days you think it
never will
sometimes you will give up hope
other days you will fulfill


Chorus 

and
now I know why caged birds sing
there is hope for all of us
you just have to keep believing in
and now I know-ooh,
now I know why caged birds sing

(keep playing the same chords: F-C-G-C )

there is hope for all of us
you just have to keep believing in
now I know why caged birds sing

there is hope for all of us
you just have to keep believing in
now I know why caged birds sing
