Chris de Burgh - Songbird From the album: The Road to Freedom (2004) Comment for any corrections and please rate Chris wrote this song in honour of the death of Eva Cassidy. G D Em I heard a voice so pure and easy, Am D A songbird singing for me, G D Em I had no choice, only to listen, Am D G D And surrender to her world, G E7 Am And she will fly over the rainbow, D G D She will walk in fields of gold, G E7 Am C And when she sings from the high walls of Heaven, G D G Dm Will the angels cry like me? G D Em At first alone, then with hundreds around me, Am D Enchanted by her song, G D Em But as the day is done, and the darkness is falling, Am D G D The songbird sings no more, G E7 Am And now she flies over the rainbow, D G D And she walks in fields of gold, G E7 Am C And when she sings from the high walls of Heaven, G D G Dm Will the angels cry like me? G E7 Am C And when she sings from the high walls of Heaven, G D Em C Will the angels cry like me, Am D G Gm Will the angels cry like me?
