Lyrics from cs.uwp.edu
This is really loosely done. You’ll definitely have to listen to
The recording.
F# 244322
B x24442
C#m x46644
F# F# B B F# F# B B
C#m
Blue morning Blue morning
B
Wrapped in strands of fist and bone
C#m
Curiosity, Kitten,
B
Doesn’t have to mean you’re on your own
C#m
You can look outside your window
B
He doesn’t have to know
C#m
We can talk awhile, baby
B
We can take it nice and slow
F# B
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame
F# B
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream
Are you happy when you’re sleeping?
Does he keep you safe and warm?
Does he tell you when you’re sorry?
Does he tell you when you’re wrong?
I’ve been watching you for hours
It’s been years since we were born
We were perfect when we started
I’ve been wondering where we’ve gone
All your life is such a shame
All your love is just a dream
C#m B
I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow
C#m B
Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there counting crows
C#m B
One for sorrow Two for joy
Three for girls and four for boys
Five for silver Six for gold and
Seven for a secret never to be told
There’s a bird that nests inside you
Sleeping underneath your skin
When you open up your wings to speak
I wish you’d let me in
