G
I don't wanna watch the birds go by
Bm C
From my handy foldable blue canvas throne
G
I wanna watch them fly and fly
Bm C C#7
And see them soar up into the unknown
But I'd feel just like a nerd
Watching birds
Watching me here all alone

I'm also not up for... water polo
[Chorus]
G
I just wanna watch the birds up there
C
Track the migratory patterns that they flow
G
I wanna watch them from my chair
Bm C
With my binoculars, my latte and my phone
Trying to spot a lark in the park parked in nature all alone
G
[Bridge]
D C Bm C
Alone here with the doves and the sparrows and the ospreys, the owlets, the eagles and mynas
D C Gadd9 D
It's just me and mr finch, the robins, the kingfishers, the snipes, though I heard they don't exist
Bm
Each little species and it's little way can teach me what awaits you if you can get away
G
I wanna watch the birds do what they will
Bm G C
Sorry if I'm ornithologically prone
G
I wanna watch from somewhere undisturbing, quiet calm still
Bm C C#7
Sit right here and gaze at the unknown
C#maj7
I don't wanna fly in the sky, I just wanna be alone.
C#maj7 G
I just wanna be alone
