The round:
Key: C# major
This 8-bar round is repeated almost all the way through the song.
This is only what the guitar plays, so just pay attention to the chords.

The round is played 1 time for the intro, then 5 times for the song.
When Antony sings "And the bird girls can fly", finish the round and play
the last two bars, |A#m|F#|, 2 times more. Then move on to the outro...


Outro:
The piano part translated okay to guitar, so here's a little guitar
arrangement of the ending part. Pianists, don't mind the tabs.

LYRICS

I am a bird girl
I am a bird girl
I am a bird girl
I am a bird girl now

I've got my heart here in my hands
I've got my heart here in my hands now

I've been searching for my wings
I've been searching for my wings some time

I'm gonna be born
I'm gonna be born into soon the sky
I'm gonna be born into soon the sky

'Cause I'm a bird girl
And the bird girls go to heaven
I'm a bird girl
And the bird girls can fly
Bird girls can fly
Bird girls can fly
Bird girls can fly
