[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D A G
She lived alone in a little home by the Township of King
D A G
In the morning she'd feed the birds and listen to them sing
D A G
From the woods they flocked to her knowing she would do no harm
D A G
Flying over the patchwork quilt of the fields and the farms
C G Bm D
Of the fields and farms, oh yeah
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
D A G
Then one day a yellow bird landed on her hand
D A G
Devoted it sang to her so that she could understand
D A G
It warned of the trucks coming up the road full of concrete and steel
D A G
Come to cut down all the trees and pave over the fields
C G Bm D
Oh oh

[Chorus]
Bm A G D
Come come the sky is grey
Bm A E A
Come come we'll find a way
[Verse 3]
D A G
They will build an amusement park where the forest once did stand
D A G
With gypsum build a mountain and they'll call it Wonderland
D A G
I will feed you and care for you until you are strong and tall
D A G
Then I will climb upon your back and we'll fly away in the fall
C G Bm D
We'll fly away, fly away

[Verse 4]
D A G
Then one day they flew away and it was the strangest thing
D A G
To watch them all fly as she waved goodbye to the Township of King
C G Bm D
To the Township of King, oh yeah
