Blackbird, Blackbird, Gflyin' late AmGrease in the pot and Gash in the grate They Fbarred the door and they shut the Cgate They got no Fplace for Gme

Where have I been to? GI don't know AmBroken fiddle and Gcrooked bow FHoles in my boots and I'm Cwalkin' slow As the last long Fshadows Gfall

What's this song the GBlackbird hears? I Amsowed my days and I Greaped my years A Fbasket of sins and a Cbucket of tears And I can't come Fin to Gstay

[Instrumental] C Dm F C F G C [Outro]
I'm going to sleep in a Glonely bed With Amwhite and whiter Glinen spread A Fcold grey stone at my Cfoot and head And Fpennies Gon my Ceyes
