Chris wrote this song in honour of the death of Eva Cassidy.
G D Em
I heard a voice so pure and easy,
Am D
A songbird singing for me,
G D Em
I had no choice, only to listen,
Am D G D
And surrender to her world,
G E7 Am
And she will fly over the rainbow,
D G D
She will walk in fields of gold,
G E7 Am C
And when she sings from the high walls of Heaven,
G D G Bm Am D
Will the angels cry like me?

G D Em
At first alone, then with hundreds around me,
Am D
Enchanted by her song,
G D Em
But as the day is done, and the darkness is falling,
Am D G D
The songbird sings no more,
G E7 Am
And now she flies over the rainbow,
D G D
And she walks in fields of gold,
G E7 Am C
And when she sings from the high walls of Heaven,
G D G D G E7 Am D G D
Will the angels cry like me?
G E7 Am C
And when she sings from the high walls of Heaven,
G D Em C
Will the angels cry like me,
Am D G Bm Am D G C G
Will the angels cry like me?
