(Verse)
GCG
Birds flying south to the one I love,
Bm7C
Birds flying high and free,
C#G/DEm7
Don't tell my darling that you saw me,
GDGEm7
Looking the way you see me.
GGmaj7CG
And winds blowing warm to the one I love,
BmC
Winds please kiss her for me,
C#Gmaj7Em7
But don't tell my darling that you saw me,
GDGEm7
Looking the way you see me.
DCG
The way you see me is how I've been,
DGDEm7
And however since she's been gone,
DCG
Just tell her you saw me like I'd like to be,
A7Amaj7DEm7
And tell her I'm happy alone.
GCG
That river of tears that I have cried,
BmC
River flow on to the sea,
C#
But don't tell my darling,
AGEm7
That you flowed from my eyes,
GDG
For she'll see me the way you see me.
