Capo  1 




                C          G 
I won’t be your cuckoo, my love 
      Em           C 
Nor a thief on the wing 
  C              G 
A shameful regret 
     Em           D 
Or a promise on a string 
           C               G 
And I will follow your heart 
   Bm     Em 
Until you let me in 
                   C       G 
I’ll never be your cuckoo, my love 
             D                  C 
I won’t be a lesson learned in spring 

(C)  G, Em, C

           C          G 
Don’t be a cuckoo, my love 
       Em           C 
If you ever want to know 
    C                G 
The beat of your heart 
       Em               D 
Or the depth of your soul 
            C           G 
And I will colour my life 
          Bm                  Em 
With the courage that you’ve shown me 
                C     G 
To never be a cuckoo, my love 
            D                                C  G  Em  C 
Oh, I will take this wish and bury it in the sno-o-o-ow

G (extended)                  D 
        The river you didn’t cross 
D                        Em 
        Grows deeper every day 
Em                            C 
        And for the rest of my life 
C                                     G 
        Are you the one that got away? 
G                       D 
        ‘Fore we grow old 
D                                             Em 
        Will you show me the depths of your soul? 
Em                            C 
        Though we clip your wings 
C                                                               C  G  Em  C 
        Well I will build a home with the courage that you have sho-o-o-own 

C, G, Em, D 
C, G, Bm, Em 
C, G, D 

    C                    G 
So put down your bow and arrow 
       Em             C 
‘Cause time is on our side 
           C            G 
And I will be here in the morning 
              Em           C 
If there are fireworks tonight 
              C             G 
Is this the calm before the storm? 
       Bm             Em 
The design is in your eyes 
                 C      G 
I’ll never be a cuckoo, my love 
            D                                    C    G 
Oh, I will take this wish and bury it in the snow 
           D                                                 C    G 
And I will build a home with the courage that you have shown 
           D                                     C    G 
And I will take this wish and bury it in the snow 

       D 
If you cross this river 
                    G 
I’m yours and yours alone
