Nightbird chords by Watchhouse

🎸 Intro:
 F

🎸 Verse 1:
  G        C
I'm standing at the door
 G       C
Crying let me in
  G                 C
I see her dancing there in all her wonder
 F       G     C   F
How her body moves with eternal youth
   Am7        C         F
And her footsteps hammer on like rolling thunder

🎸 Verse 2:
    G           C
While I'm stuck here in the shadows
 G      C
Fueling the dream
   G                C
Another face just flashing in the night
  F          G
The smoke it folds around me
 C        F
Like unenchanted wings
  Am7        C            F
As I listen to the nightbirds singing in their flight


🎸 Chorus:
F G C        F
Oh, close this great divide
 Am7    C     F
Between my heart and mind


🎸 Verse 3:
    G        C
Once shе held me in my anguish
 G        C
Pulled mе from my pain
   G              C
And sheltered me from life's mysteries
 F          G
Somewhere beyond the darkness
C        F
Lies incredible light
 Am7          C       F
At least that’s what she once made me believe


🎸 Verse 4:
   G        C
So go dive in empty spaces
   G         C
Where magic weaves and spins
  G                  C
Go find her there, it's where she set me free
   F          G      C    F
Now I'm pulling chains from every corner of her memory
  Am7        C        F
Go find her there and bring her back to me


🎸 Chorus:
F G C         F
Oh, close this great divide
Am7    C     F
Between my heart and mind


🎸 Bridge:
  F        Em   F
Just listen to the nightbirds
 F      Em    F
Listen to the nightbirds
 F      Em    F
Listen to the nightbirds
 F      Em    F
Listen to the nightbirds


🎸 Outro:
     G           C
Well, if I could turn my back now
   G         C
And lay back down with you
   G                 C
I'd pull you in and finally get some sleep
 F        G
Listening to the nightbirds
 C        F
Without wondering how
 Am7          C     F
They hold her in their song so casually
