I'm Like A Bird
Nelly Furtado (1999)
Intro
| [Em] | [G] | [Am] | [C] [D]
You're | [G] beautiful, that's for | [Em] sure
You'll | [G] never ever | [D] fade
You're | [G] lovely but it's not for | [Em] sure
That | [G] I won't ever | [D] change
Pre-Chorus
And though my love is | [C] rare- ar- ar- | [D] are
Though my love is | [C] true- u- u- | [D] ue
Chorus
| [G] I'm like a bird, I'll only fly a- | [D] way
I don't know where my | [Am] soul is, I don't know where my | [C] home is
(and baby all I need for you to know is)
| [G] I'm like a bird, I'll only fly a- | [D] way
I don't know where my | [Am] soul is, I don't know where my | [C] home is
(all I need for you to know is)
Your | [G] faith in me brings me to | [Em] tears
| [G] Even after all these | [D] years
And it | [G] pains me so much to | [Em] tell
That | [G] you don't know me that | [D] well
Pre-Chorus
And though my love is | [C] rare- ar- ar- | [D] are
Though my love is | [C] true- u- u- | [D] ue
Chorus
| [G] I'm like a bird, I'll only fly a- | [D] way
I don't know where my | [Am] soul is, I don't know where my | [C] home is
(and baby all I need for you to know is)
| [G] I'm like a bird, I'll only fly a- | [D] way
I don't know where my | [Am] soul is, I don't know where my | [C] home is
(all I need for you to know is)
Bridge
| [C] It's not that I wanna say goodbye
| [Em] It's just that every time you try
To | [C] tell me that you | [D] lo- o- ve me
| [C] Each and every single day
I | [Em] know I'm going to have to eventually
| [C] give you a- | [D] way- yeah- yeah | [D]
Pre-Chorus
And though my love is | [C] rare- ar- ar- | [D] are
Though my love is | [C] true- u- u- | [D] ue
Hey I'm just | [C] scared | [D]
That we may fall | [C] through | [D] | [D]
Chorus
| [G] I'm like a bird, I'll only fly a- | [D] way
I don't know where my | [Am] soul is, I don't know where my | [C] home is
(and baby all I need for you to know is)
| [G] I'm like a bird, I'll only fly a- | [D] way
I don't know where my | [Am] soul is, I don't know where my | [C] home is
(all I need for you to know is)
| [G] I'm like a bird, I'll only fly a- | [D] way
I don't know where my | [Am] soul is, I don't know where my | [C] home is
(and baby all I need for you to know is)
| [G] I'm like a bird, I'll only fly a- | [D] way
I don't know where my | [Am] soul is, I don't know where my | [C↓] home is
