Blackbird

<br>Blackbird, why you wearing that frown?<br>Don`t you know Jesus loves you and me and the preacher on T.V. you`re putting<br>down<br>Blackbird, how I love to hear your songs<br>I could spend all of my time in the shade of the trees and listen all day long<br>Chorus<br>But you`re ever hearing, never understanding<br>Ever seeing, not perceiving and your heart has grown callous<br>You`re in a storm and lost your way<br>Won`t you fly to heaven and be saved today<br>Blackbird, now you`ve broken your wing<br>You try to fly to high but you know that you can`t go anywhere, can`t do<br>anything<br>Blackbird, who put you in your cage?<br>Tell me was it God or was it you?<br>Was it me? I guess it don`t matter anyway<br>(Chorus)<br>Bridge<br>You say you need a remedy for the thorn in your pride<br>I think it`s such a tragedy<br>That you have left him behind<br>You say you`d light your candle<br>But your love light doen`t shine<br>You say you talk to angels<br>Well I say it`s such a lie<br>(Chorus)
