12I just want to watch the birds go by
        Am623                        C#m24    C#m725
13From my handy foldable blue canvas throne
        A26          E27
14I wanna watch them fly and fly
    Am628                       C#m29     C#m730
15And see them soar up into the unknown
        A31                               Am32                           E33
16But I'd feel just like a nerd, watching birds, watching me here all alone

33Trying to spot a lark in the park parked in nature all alone

35Bridge:
B67                                 A68
36Alone here with the doves and the sparrows and the ospreys
    C#m69                     A70
37The owlets, the eagles and my list
          B71                     A72
38It's just me and Mr. Finch, the robins, the kingfishers
    C#m73                                 B74
39The snipes, though I heard they don't exist
A75                          E76
40Each little species in its little way can teach me
     E777                        A978
41What awaits you if you can get away
42
43Chorus:
        A79                  E80
44I wanna watch the birds do what they will
Am681                           C#m82   C#m783
45Sorry if I'm ornithologically prone
        A84                                  E85
46I wanna watch from somewhere undisturbing, quiet, calm and still
Am686                              C#m87   C#m788
47Sit right here and gaze at the unknown

49Finale:
A89                                             B90
