I can see that mockingbird

Now I don't believe a word
Bb Eb Bb
I can see that mockingbird
Gm Bb F
I know he'll never leave

Though his taunts can't hurt

When he flies, he's singing lies

And when he flies, he's singin' lies...

He will never leave my side

Brave though he is

And all the countless times he tried

He will meet my fear and pride

And I cannot hide

And when he flies, he's singin' lies...

I can see that bird of shame
Gm F

I'm stronger than that now
Eb Bb
I won't bear the blame
[chorus]

But when he flies, he's singing lies
Eb Bb
And when he flies, he's singin' lies...
F Eb Bb F
In his bird disguise, he's singing lies
Eb Bb F Bb
He'll make you cry, by singin' lies...
