The Woodthrush's Song chords and lyrics - GRACE GRIFFITH

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
I [Am]walk down the hall
where the woods used to stand
Concrete at my feet
and brick walls at every hand
And over my head steel
girders so strong
Where I first felt the spell
of the woodthrush's song
Now the woodthrush has vanished
Seeking the place
That's not felt the crush
of man's em[E]brace
[Am]The deep woods are gone now
And oh how I long
To again [G]feel the [Am]spell
of the wood thrush's song
Over my head just a few years ago
The poplar trees shivered
when the breezes did blow
Now the deep hum of engines
drowns the soft sigh
Of the wind and the leaves
of the few trees nearby
And the wood thrush has vanished,
seeking the place
That's not felt the crush
of man's [E]em brace
[Am]The deep woods are gone [G]now,
[Am]and oh how I [C]long
[Am]To again f[G]eel the sp[Am]ell
of the wood thrush's song
Man is the inventor,
the builder, the sage
The writer and seeker of truth by the page
But all of his knowledge can never explain
The deep mystery
of the wood thrush refrain
And the wood thrush has vanished
Seeking the place
That's not felt the crush
of man's [Em]em brace
[Am]The deep woods are gone [G]now
[Am]And oh how I l[G]ong
[Am]To again feel the spell
of the wood thrush's song
