WHEN THE SWALLOWS FLY

Transcribed by David Lino (Brazil)
    G
    I wander lonely as a cloud,
    D
    I keep my head above the crowd
    C              C7                G
    Ain’t nobody else,   as big as me
    G
    But I must remember friends
    D
    What has to start just has to end,
    C                 C7             G
    Everybody’s   got,   a destiny


            G                       C
    And I know, when the swallow flies
            G                            C
    yes I know,    and the earth just dies then
        G                    Am
    Then I’ll be told what I am
    G
    The swallow and me


    G                  D
    I’ll look after number one
    D
    I’ll forget the beggars son
    C            C7             G
    Everybody’s got, to stay alive
    G
    I’ll keep on walkin’ ‘mongst the clouds
    D
    I’ll keep my head above the crowd
    C                C7                    G
    I’ll watch them live, I’ll watch them die


             G                       C
    And I know,   when the swallow flies
            G                         C
    yes I know,  and the earth just dies then
         G                   Am
    Then I’ll be told what I am
    G
    The swallow and me
