Verse 
G                  C            G 
Birds flying south to the one I love, 
             Bm7      C 
Birds flying high and free, 
              C#           G/D     Em7 
Don't tell my darling that you saw me, 
G           D           G  Em7 
Looking the way you see me. 

G                 Gmaj7       C     G 
And winds blowing warm to the one I love, 
             Bm           C 
Winds please kiss her for me, 
                  C#     Gmaj7         Em7 
But don't tell my darling that you saw me, 
G           D           G  Em7 
Looking the way you see me. 

    D                 C        G 
The way you see me is how I've been, 
D                       G        D/F# Em7 
And however since she's been gone, 
     D                   C                G 
Just tell her you saw me like I'd like to be, 
A7               Amaj7     D Em7 
And tell her I'm happy alone. 

G                   C           G 
That river of tears that I have cried, 
           Bm        C 
River flow on to the sea, 
                  C# 
But don't tell my darling, 
A    G                  Em7 
That you flowed from my eyes, 
           G          D           G 
For she'll see me the way you see me.
