The Swallow

G C G In this tortured life, I find no peace of mind D I find no place to rest G C G Since the comfort of my Mother’s arms are gone D G With the warmth of her sweet breast G C G Many times I’ve tried as I looked into the sun D To see her smiling face G C G But she laid her body down by the sea D G And the swallow took her place C G And the swallow flies in the winter C G As she spreads her heart to the sea C G Em She spreads her wings ‘or the ocean C D G Oh the swallow does fly free G C G Someday I know my wings are gonna come D I fly beyond the sea G C G To a home I’ve dreamed of many times before D G On that day I shall be free C G And the swallow flies in the winter C G As she spreads her heart to the sea C G Em She spreads her wings ‘or the ocean C D G Oh the swallow does fly free C G And the swallow flies in the winter C G As she spreads her heart to the sea C G Em She spreads her wings ‘or the ocean C D G Oh the swallow does fly free
