We Used To Be Birds Ukulele

(Version #1)
Dylan Sylvester
D
When you hatched from you little egg
Bm
I hatched out of mine 
D
Our mothers taught us how to sing 
Bm
And we taught ourselves to fly
D
My heart skipped a thousand beats 
Bm
When I saw you on that tree
D
I knew we were soulmates 
Bm
It was meant to be 

Em
Then the whole flock heard that thunder sound 
Bm
And You fell lifeless to the ground 
Em
And I saw you get picked up by men 

G                   A        Bm
And I knew you were gone for good
G                  A         D
But I knew I would see you again

D 
The next time that I saw your face
Bm
Was English class grade 9
D
You sat next to the window
Bm
And you caused the sun to shine
D
I wanted to say hi to you
Bm
But I couldn't find the nerve
D 
How could I tell you that I knew you
Bm
When we used to be birds

Em
I didn't tell you how I felt
Bm
So you moved on and we both moved out
Em
The years go by much faster now

G                   A        Bm
And I knew you were gone for good
G             A          Bm
But we'd be together somehow

Em
And you probably got a good job 
Bm
And you probably finished your degree
Em 
And you probably got married 
Bm
And he's probably nothing like me
Em 
And we probably does a thousand time
Bm
But you probably don't recall
Em 
I know I'll be at peace with you
Bm                   A
Before the end of It all

D
Birds rest on my shoulder
Bm
Sleeping in their nest
D
It reminds me of better times
Bm
Back when we first met
D
Skies constantly thunder
Bm 
And volcanoes start to burn
D
I'll stand tall with my brothers
Bm
The last forest on earth

Em
A seed'll fall down next to me
Bm
And grow into a slender tree
Em
And before the forest gets consumed

G               A
I will be with yooouuuu
G      A       D
I will be with you
