C             F      C
Songbird in a golden cage
C        G       C
She'd prefer the blue
F               C      G      C
How I crave the liquor of her song
C                 F       C
Poor bird who has done no harm
C         G         C
What harm could she do
F               C        G        C
She shall be my prisoner her life long
F                     C
My songbird wants her freedom
    F                 C
Now don't you think I know
C           Dm      Em    F
But I can't find it in myself
   Am         G    Am
To let my songbird go
F            G       C
I just can't let her go

SOLO

C                  F         C
O Lord, when your jeweler's eye
        G       C
Peers into my soul
F             C    G        C
O Lord, I am overcome with shame
C                  F  C
Take me, Lord, and purify
C       G      C  
Heal me with a word
F             C       G        C
Lord, I beg a gift I dare not claim
F                     C
My songbird wants her freedom
    F                 C
Now don't you think I know?
C           Dm      Em    F
But I can't find it in myself
   Am         G    Am
To let my songbird go
F            G       C
I just can't let her go
