[Verse 1]
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            Gsus4   G
It's like nothing in this world's ever still

[Verse 2]
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          Gsus4   G
It's like nothing in this world ever sleeps

[Chorus]
    C             F             G         C     
Oh, sometimes the blues is just a passing bird
    Am             F      Gsus4   G
And why can't that always be?
C        F         G            C     
Tossing aside from your birches crown
Am          F       Gsus4   G
Just enough dark to see
                          (same as intro)
                          Dm G C F
How you're the light over me

Dm7 G C F

[Verse 3]
Dm             G                   C       F
   And by your side, girl, where the acres grow
Dm          G                   C      F
   Into the strong and stunning meadow
Dm          G              C        F
   A cowboy stumbling in the finest field
    E                F              Gsus4   G
And nothing good out there won't be yours

[Chorus]
    C             F             G         C     
Oh, sometimes the blues is just a passing bird
    Am             F      Gsus4   G
And why can't that always be?
C        F         G            C     
Tossing aside from your birches crown
Am          F       Gsus4   G
Just enough dark to see
                          (same as chorus)
                          C F G C
How you're the light over me
