G    D             Em     F 
If I leave here tomorrow 
         C              D   G 
Would you still remember me? 
G          D               Em     F 
For I must be travelling on, now, 
F                       C                  D         
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see. 
G         D                Em         F  
But, if I stayed here with you, girl, 
F           C               D     G 
Things just couldn't be the same. 
G             D         Em        F  
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now, 
F        C                D       F 
And this bird you can not change. 
F        C                D       F 
And this bird you can not change 
F        C                D       F 
And this bird you can not change 
F    C              D             
Lord knows, I can't change.

G    D               Em           F      
Bye, bye, its been a sweet love. 
F           C               D        G  
though this feeling I can't change. 
G                D          Em     F          
But please don't take it so badly, 
F           C            D        G   
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame. 
G         D                Em       F    
But, if I stayed here with you girl, 
F           C               D       G   
Things just couldn't be the same. 
G            D         Em        F 
Cause I'm as free as a bird now, 
F        C                 D       F 
And this bird you can not change. 
F        C                D        F 
And this bird you can not change. 
F        C                 D        F 
And this bird you'll never change 
F    C              D        F 
Lord knows, I can't change. 
F    C                D        G   
Lord help me, I can't change. 
Bb           C           
Lord I can't change 
          G   Bb   C
