The Leading Bird

Em D Em D

[Verse]
Em                D
Clouds descend on grass grown wild
Em              D
Tall and grand, lush in hand
Em                  D
They bend in air as man in prayer
Em               D
I'm weaving through, trying to get to you

[Chorus]
Em             C               G
I'm running past birds of dawn
                  D
They sing like heaven, they're leading on

[Verse]
Em                    D
Yet I don't see slow motioned wings
     Em                  D
Like gold in sun, how it could be won
Em                  D
White as snow silk-feathered doves
Em         D
Eternal glow, they easily know

[Chorus]
Em               C                G
That life is grand in all its shapes
              D
Wether it gives, wether it takes
Em           C           G
That I am you, you are me, and
          D
Loving grace can set us free
Em               C              G
From sprinting far, above, beyond
            D
Being our own strong magic wand

[Bridge]
Ooo ooo ooo oo
Em  C   D   G

[Outro]
Em                          D
I’m pushing through, though knowing this
Em                               D
Thinking it all falls behind the next abyss
     Em                 D
I’ll get there soon and dwell there some
          Em                D
’Til it’s time for the next cloud to come
