E (octave higher) 

E                       G 
It's the shadow in the dark 
E                  G 
The silver in the park 
E                  G    
It's the broken, faded bird 
                   D         E 
You've learned to call your heart 

E                   G 
It's not a border you can see 
D             E                               
Plainer than you or me 
E                 G 
I don't pull the lock back 
      D     C        E 
And I don't have the key 

No key

E                      G 
It hovers in the living room 
E               G 
Just above the door 
E                 G 
Whistles while it hangs there 
                    D     E 
Feathers drip from every pore 


E                           G 
It shows the spectacle of falling 
D               C   E 
And settles to the floor 
E                           G 
It shows the spectacle of falling 
D               C   E 
And settles to the floor 
E 
And settles to the floor
