(Remark: On the low E-string, I use the little finger for the "3"

note, and the thumb for the "2" and "1". I also find the "4" note

quite difficult to reach, so usually I play that as a "0".)

There's a lump in my throat, and an ache in my heart

There's tears in my eyes, 'cause we're an ocean apart

There's nothing quite as real as being on my own,

Nothing quite as true as being all alone

This bird has flown,

But when the summer has passed, she'll come back home

Love, come wing your way,

Sweet bird of passage, come home to stay

Love, come wing your way,
