VERSE:
C Em
Like a common loon
C
I started hearing birds
Em
Birdsong everywhere
C
A lark in the shower
Em Em D C
From the night to the morning after

C Em
Warblers and wrens
C
Hymn at my throat
Em
Shook and quivering
C
Oh I could have crowed
Em Em D E Am
Oh I could have crowed

CHORUS:
Am Dm
I was snared by your wrist
Am
I know what the cost is
Dm
In the octaves of consequence
Bdim C
I know the cost of flight is landing

E E7 Am
And I know I could take it like a man
E Am Am C
I know I could take it like a man

VERSE:
C Em
Falls of fascinations
C
The sky was leaking light
Em
Like your eyes do
C
That shipwrecked expression
Em Em D C
I need more words for blue

C Em
Trilling in the tree
C
The way I measure you
Em
Fractured thirteenths
C
That grin that you give
Em Em D E E7 Am
When you want me to quit

CHORUS:
Am Dm
Falling further and falcon swift
Am
I know what the cost is
Dm
In the octaves of consequence
Bdim C
I know the cost of flight is landing

E E7 Am
I know I can take it like a man
E E7 Am
I know I can take it like a man
E Am Am E
I know I can take it like a man

Am Dm
Falling further and falcon swift

In the octaves of consequence

And I know I can take it like a man
