F      C             Dm
Spring came far too early this year:
F      C             Dm
May flowers blooming in February
F           C
Should I be sad for the month
   Dm
Or glad for the sky?
F                          C
The birds don't know which way to sing
        Dm
And, my friend
C          Dm
Neither do I

[Verse]
F        C             Dm
Two days ago, a girl I truly thought I loved
F        C              Dm
Suddenly didn't seem to matter at all
F             C
Should I sing sad farewell
Dm
To things I'm really glad I've left behind?
F                          C
The birds don't know which way to sing
        Dm
And, my friend
C          Dm
Neither do I

[Verse]
F        C             Dm
In another day, heavy snow will lie upon the ground
F        C                   Dm
And buds prematurely bloomed shall fail;
F                         C
And every creature living now
Dm
Then will surely die...
F                          C
The birds don't know which way to sing
        Dm
And, my friend
C          Dm
Neither do I

[Refrain]
F                            C    Dm
The birds don't know if it's time yet to fly;
F                     C
They don't know which way to go
         Dm
And, my friend
C          Dm
Neither do I
