Blackbird (Live)

Blackbird why you wearing that frown

Don't you know Jesus loves you and me

And the preacher on T V you're putting down

Blackbird how I love to hear your songs

I could spend all of my time in the shade

Of the trees and listen all day long

But you're ever hearing never understanding

Ever seeing not perceiving and your heart

Has grown callous

You're in a storm and lost you way

Won't you fly to heaven and be saved today

Blackbird now you're broken your wing

You try to fly high but you know that you

Can't go anywhere you can't do anything

Blackbird who put you in your cage

Tell me was it God or was it you

Was it me I guess it don't matter anyway

Repeat chorus

You say you need a remedy

For the thorn in your pride

I think it's such a tragedy

That you have left Him behind

You say you'd light you candle

But your love light doesn't shine

You say you talk to angels

Well I say it's such a lie

Repeat chorus
