Intro: D G
 
Verse 1:
D G Em A  
I flew between the buildings with pigeons today 
I sat on sunny windowsills and cooed the skies of grey 
Saw everybody people watching, learning how to play 
And wondered who would I be watching on my final day 
I settled on the clock tower and listened to it chime 
But timing to a pigeon is a painting to the blind 
I spread my wings and let the sunlight filter through my feathers  
Then took into the air but I stayed clear below the heavens 
left my post and headed to the museum corridors 
left my mark on history, it dribbled down the walls 
 
Chorus 
D G Em A   
Then I rose up on the wings or the dawn 
And settled on the far side of the sea 
But still your hand was there, waiting for me 
 
D G D G 
 
Verse 2: 
D G Em A  
I flew above the pyramids, I flew above the Nile 
I rested at the colosseum but only for a while then 
Headed north but Santa Claus was nowhere to be found 
I waved goodbye to polar bears and kept on going round then 
The sunlight in the Caribbean warmed me to the bone 
I could fly these skies forever but I knew I must go home  
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge:
D G Em A   
21 years, will I see 22 
21 years I was given by you 
21 years is a long time for a pigeon 
I consider myself lucky though I still have my religion 
There’s a shell on the beach and it shows you the answer 
Cos I know where you’ve been and I lay where you lie 
But shells on the beach are as vast as the cancer 
The word in the blankets that is buried alive 
 
Chorus:
D G Em A   
So I rose up on the wings or the dawn 
And settled on the far side of the sea 
But still your hand was there, 
still your hand was there  
still your hand was there  
waiting for me 
 
Verse 3:
D G Em A   
As I flew above your lead you looked up from below 
You said I’m a man today but I’m a bird tomorrow
