Intro:
C F G G x2
Verse 1:
CHere we Fsee the GBearded Cardinal
in his Cnative FhabiGtat -Welcome to the Walmart parking lot
CCoolin' Foff, beneaGth the shade
of a 'C92 CFadillGac -Could life get any better?
Bridge(One hit and strum before change):
But there's a Amsad truth
like a Emflower that won't blossom
Dmhe'll never do the one thing
that makes Ambeing a bird awesome...
AmUnlike his bird brethren
Emtraversing the sky
Dm Knock guitar 3 times
the Bearded Cardinal
will never fly.Am..
Verse 3(Steve talking):
STOP
-Excuse me,I'm sorry, I couldn't help but overhear
did you say I can't fly?
-Yeah.
-You're the Bearded Cardinal,
a flightless bird.
-You know what?I'm cool with that.In fact, I see it as a positive!
I want to sing about it...
Verse 4(Hit Every chord 4 times):
I got a big Cbeak
feathers on Ffleek
I keep Gcool in the heat by
flapping my vestigial Cwings.
I'm down to CEarth,
In fact I hate Fheights.
GWho needs working wings
when you're this Cfly?
CI regurgitate meals
into my kids/ Fmouths...
I never get Gsucked into a jet
or hit the side of a Chouse...
Here comes a shopping Ccart
at a pretty high Fspeed
If I was a Gbettin' bird
I'd bet the carts about to hit Cme...
Outro(Hit every chord once and let it fade):
AmOhhhhhh -It did
EmOhhhhhh -It hurts
DmOhhhhhhhhhhhh
AmOhhhhhhhhhhhh
ohhh
ohh
I'm dead.
-Oh man, I think he is dead....
-He couldn't fly, but he's a pretty good lip syncer.
