Am9 Hm9
I like the cry , of the bird in the sky
I like the laughter of the men around the fire
I like sentimental mornings I like to dream (sleep) at night
I wonder why I always fall for sad eyes
chorus em hm7 am
tell me why do the stars at night
fill me up with love
why do they sometimes fall
and what are your dreams made out of?
Can't you let me stay here for a little while?
I'll be on my way in the first morning light
cause I like to climb up the hill all alone
I like to carry my weight all by myself
chorus
tell me why are the colours of the sky
my favorite colours of all
why do they somethimes fade?
when the morning comes.
Coda: C – G
and black as a curtain falls
the darkness of the night
untill it all comes down into the morning light
