G D Em
i heard a voice so pure and easy ,
Am D
a songbird singing for me ,
G D Em
i had no choice , only to listen ,
Am D G D
and surrender to her world ,

G E7 Am
and she will fly over the rainbow ,
D G D
she will walk in fields of gold ,
G E7 Am C
and when she sings from the high walls of heaven ,
G D G Bm Am D
will the angels cry like me?

G D Em
at first alone , then with hundreds around me ,
Am D
enchanted by her song ,
G D Em
but as the day is done , and the darkness is falling ,
Am D G D
the songbird sings no more ,

G E7 Am
and now she flies over the rainbow ,
D G D
and she walks in fields of gold ,
G E7 Am C
and when she sings from the high walls of heaven ,
G D G D G E7 Am D G D
will the angels cry like me?
G E7 Am C
and when she sings from the high walls of heaven ,
G D Em C
will the angels cry like me ,
Am D G Bm Am D G C G
will the angels cry like me?
