The Falcon

Am Oh,the falcon was a pretty bird F G C E wandered as she flew F G C C/B Am She danced around and pranced around E E7 Am wherever the warm winds blew Am And the falcon was a pretty bird F G C E Her voice was always still, F G C C/B Am But men with drums and men with guns E E7 Am they taught her how to k**l Am Her eye was on the sparrow F G C E Her mind was on the dove, F G C C/B Am But no one cared and no one dared E E7 Am to speak to her of love Am Her eyes are always hooded F G C E Her claws are sharp as steel F G C C/B Am We teach her not to see too much E E7 Am We teach her not to feel Am Go build you a log cabin F G C E on a mountain so high, F G C C/B Am And hear the feathered war-birds yell E E7 Am as she goes screaming by Am She'll tease you she'll please you F G C E She'll satisfy your needs F G C C/B Am But someday she might turn around E E7 Am and maul the hand that feeds Am Your hours might be numbered F G C E Your end might come someday F G C C/B Am Go break her chain and free her brain E E7 Am and send her on her way Am And the falcon is a pretty bird F G C E Wonders as she flies F G C C/B Am She asks us easy questions E E7 Am We tell her easy lies
