G            Am7    C6add9     D7   D7(2)  D7
And one last bird,    And another

G              Am7                      C6add9 
One last black bird without a place to land

                               D7   D7(2)  D7...          
One last black bird without a place to be
Turns around in hopes to find the place it last knew rest
Oh black bird, over black rain burn
This is not where you last knew rest
You fly all night to sleep on stone
The heartless rest that in the morn, we'll be gone
You fly all night to sleep on stone, to return to the tree with too many birds
Too many birds
Too many birds

G        Am7        C6add9     D7   D7(2)  D7
If...
If you...
If you could...
If you could only...
If you could only stop...
If you could only stop your...
If you could only stop your heart...
If you could only stop your heart beat...
If you could only stop your heart beat for...
If you could only stop your heart beat for one heart...

G             Am7           C6add9             D7   D7(2)  D7
If you could only stop your heart beat for one heart beat.
