D G A D
Long ago I was flyin' in the air
G A D G A D G A
Lookin' at the sea below, I was huntin' krill
D G A D
Divin' down, in a flash, I'd scoop 'em up
G A D G A D G A
Thrashin' in my mandible, it was such a thrill
[Pre-Chorus]
G A7 D
Me, my friends, we were killers
[Chorus]
D
Now I'm just a bird with a broken wing
B B7
And I still have a song to sing
Em A
Turning night to day, warbling clouds away
D
I'm just a bird with a broken wing
B
And this beautiful song to sing
Em A D
Don't feel sad for me, I'm right where I wanna be
[ Instrumental ]

[Verse 2]
D G A D
The stupid cat, always sneakin' up on me
G A D G A D
Thinkin' I would be his meal, 'til I slipped up and away
D G A D
Singing out (Wow), the melody came endlessly (Wow)
G A D G A D
High or low, I felt so free (Wow), I had somethin' to say (Wow)
[Pre-Chorus]
G A7 D
But he'll never catch my melody
[Chorus]
D
Though I'm just a bird with a broken wing (Ah)
B B7
And I still have a song to sing (Ah)
Em A7
Turning night to day (Ah), warbling clouds away (Ah)

I'm just a bird with a broken wing (Ah)

And this beautiful song to sing (Ah)

Don't feel sad for me (Ah), I'm right where I wanna be (Ah)
[Bridge]
D Em A7 D
Nothin' matters in the world and everyone is free
D G A7 D
But I'll belong to you if you believe in me

Nothin' matters in the world and everyone is free(Ooh, ooh)

But I'll belong to you if you believe in me
[Chorus]

I'm just a bird with a broken wing (Ah)

And I still have a song to sing (Ah)

I'm just a bird with a broken wing (Ah)

And this beautiful song to sing (Ah)

Don't feel sad for me (Ah), I'm right where I wanna be (Ah)
