Requiem Acordes

	  C       Am      D    G     D               Em    Em/D  
Well, I saw a bird today --- flying from a bush  
C         Am           D Dsus4  
and the wind blew it away.  
         Bm       E7      A                C#m          F#m F#m/E  
And the black-eyed mother sun scorched the butterfly at play  
             D     Bm       E  E7/D  
--- velvet veined. I saw it burn.  
C       Am                G      F        Dm                 C  
With a wintry storm-blown sigh, a silver cloud blew right on by.  
                   G   Em       D Dsus4       G G/F# Em Em/D C  
And, taking in the morning, I sang --- O Requiem.  
 
(REST THE SAME)  
Well, my lady told me, ``Stay.''  
I looked aside and walked away along the Strand.  
But I didn't say a word, as the train time-table blurred  
  close behind the taxi stand.  
Saw her face in the tear-drop black cab window.  
Fading in the traffic; watched her go.  
And taking in the morning, heard myself singing ---  
  O Requiem.  
Here I go again.  
It's the same old story.  
Well, I saw a bird today --- I looked aside and walked  
  away along the Strand.
