G                     C9            D 
You have many houses, one for every season 
G                          C9              D 
Mountains in your windows, violets in your hand  
Em7                               C9               D 
Through your English meadows your blue-eyed horses wander 
C9                         D 
You're in Colorado for the spring 
G                          C9                    D 
When the winter finds you, you fly to where it's summer 
G                          C9                D 
Rooms that face the ocean, moonlight on your bed 
Em7                        C9                 D 
Mermaids swift as dolphins paint the air with diamonds 
C9                            D 
You are like a seagull as you said 
C                                               G 
Why do you fly bright feathered sometimes in my dreams? 
Bb                        C 
The shadows of your wings fall over my face 
Bb                 C 
I can feel no air, I can find no peace 
Bb                       C 
Brides in black ribbons, witches in white 
Bb                      C                   G 
Fly in through windows, fly out through the night 
C                                        G 
Why do I think I'm dying sometimes in my dreams 
Bb                    C 
I see myself a child running through the trees 
Bb                    C 
Searching for myself, looking for my life 
Bb                 C 
Looking everywhere crawling on my knees 
Bb                         C               g 
I cannot see the leaves, I cannot see the light 
Em7                     D 
Then I see you walking just beyond the forest 
Em7                   D 
Walking very quickly, walking by yourself 
Em7                    D 
Your shoes are silver, your coat is made of velvet 
Em7                    D 
Your eyes are shining, your voice is sweet and clear 
C                                  D 
'Come on', you say, 'Come with me, I'm going to the castle' 
C                          D 
All the bells are ringing, the weddings have begun 
C                          D 
But I can only stand here, I cannot move to follow 
C                              C9              D 
I'm burning in the shadows and freezing in the sun 
G                         C9             D 
There are people with you living in your houses 
G                              C9               D 
People from your childhood who remember how you were 
Em7                       C9             D 
You were always flying, nightingale of sorry 
C9                D                C 
Singing bird with rainbows on your wings 

    
This one was a bear to work out sometimes the chords I intend don't show properly there should be no barre  
chords in this the C9 should be index finger on d at 2nd fret middle A at 3rd and ring b at 3rgd fret
