Verse 1
E
Black bird, why you wearin' that frown?
A A/G
Well, don't ya know Jesus loves you and me
and the preacher on TV your puttin' down?
E
Blackbird, how I love to hear your songs.

And listen all day long.

I could listen
A-G-E
All day long
A-G-E
Chorus
G D
Whoa but your ever hearing, never understanding,
A E
Yea I see you're not percieving and your heart has grown calloused
G D
You're in a storm and lost your way,
A
Won't you fly to heaven and be saved today.
Verse 2
E
Blackbird, now you've broken your wings.
A
You try to fly high, but you know that
A/G

A
Tell me was it God or was it you

You say you need a rememdy,
For the thorn in your pride

A G E
That you left Him behind!
You say you light your candle
But your love light doesn't shine.

You say you talk to angels
A G E
Well, I say that's such a lie.

Yes it is now

Whoa yeah

If anyone knows the guitar solo, I am very interested in knowing what it
is. But I am still a young musician, so I'm not really good at figuring
that kind of stuff out. Well, God Bless!
