Tom: A
Introdução:
G Dm
I think of you much more than
F C
I would like to admit that I do before strangers
G
But there you are
Dm
Whistling through the trees again
F
Rustling through the leaves my friend
C G Dm F C
A feather on my pillow lets me know that you're near
G Dm
I remember the night that you arrived
F
December maybe '95
C G
Your hair and your breath smelled of John Player Specials
Dm
A stranger who I learned to love
F
A friend when really no one was
C
My Daedalus, my wings to fly
G Dm F C
Why'd you leave me behind?
G Dm
My beautiful crow
F C
And all those black feathers perched deep in my soul
G Dm F C
Won't let me, let you go
G Dm F
I never really thanked you for all of the light
C
You brought into my mother's eyes
G
So many others tried
Dm
Her sadness since the day you left
F
She will not get out of bed
C G
She stares out the window, smokes a black pack of JPS
G Dm F
I was out on Saint Paul's when I heard about your fall
C G
Walking with Caroline, she bums smokes from time to time
Dm
I walked home alone that night
F
I could feel you when I closed my eyes
C G Dm F C
I looked up into the night and watched black feathers fall from the sky
G Dm F
I think of you much more than I'm allowed to admit
C G
But I do, I still do
Dm
My beautiful crow
F C
And all those black feathers perched deep in my soul
G Dm F C
Won't let me, let you go
G Dm
I have tried to push you down
F
I have tried to cut you out
C
You're rattling your cage
G
I'm rattling my cage
Dm
I have tried to drown you out
F
Drink till I don't hear the sound
C
The song's still the same
G
The song's still the same
Dm
My beautiful crow
F C
And all those black feathers perched deep in my soul
G Dm F C
Won't let me, let you go
