KING OF BIRDS



Original chords by: ?

Corrections from: the-concourse-on-high





{Play the "D" chord like this:   xx0235

And play around with it, like descending on that high E string (frets->5,3,2)

through one line of verse.}





Intro :  D



D

A thumbnail sketch, a jeweler's stone

A mean idea to call my own

Old man don't lay so still you're not yet young

There's time to teach, point to point

Point observation, children carry reservations

                                                    G

Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves me cold, leaves me cold.

F#                            A                        D

A mean idea to call my own, a hundred million birds fly



D

Singer sing me a given, singer sing me a song

Standing on the shoulders of giants everybody's looking on

(Old don't lay so still you're not yet young)

                                    G

Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves me cold

F#                            A                         B

A mean idea to call my own, a hundred million birds fly away

E         B                        E         -->  D

away... awaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyieeeeeee





D

I am king of all I see, my kingdom for a voice

Old man don't lay so still, you're not yet young

There's time to teach, point to point

Point observation, children carry reservations

                                     G

Standing on the shoulders of giants, leaves me cold

F#                            A                     D

A mean idea to call my own, a hundred million birds fly away.

D

Everybody hit the ground.  Everybody hit the ground.
