C F C
Songbird in a golden cage
C G C
She'd prefer the blue
F C G C
How I crave the liquor of her song
C F C
Poor bird who has done no harm
C G C
What harm could she do
F C G C
She shall be my prisoner her life long
F C
My songbird wants her freedom
F C
Now don't you think I know
C Dm Em F
But I can't find it in myself
Am G Am
To let my songbird go
F G C
I just can't let her go
SOLO
C F C
O Lord, when your jeweler's eye
G C
Peers into my soul
F C G C
O Lord, I am overcome with shame
C F C
Take me, Lord, and purify
C G C
Heal me with a word
F C G C
Lord, I beg a gift I dare not claim
F C
My songbird wants her freedom
F C
Now don't you think I know?
C Dm Em F
But I can't find it in myself
Am G Am
To let my songbird go
F G C
I just can't let her go
