Boats And Birds Chords & Tabs
Song Title: Boats and Birds
Artist: Gregory and the Hawks
Tabbed by: NrLsKy-Matt
I made this tab so that those who can not finger pick, or those who find the original
too difficult, may be able to play the song. Basically, I transposed the song into all
It is accurate tone wise. In my opinion it sounds nice, but remember the original song
played by playing each note individually, so don't expect it to sound exactly like it.
e-mail me with corrections, comments, praise, requests, etc at nrlsky1@yahoo.com or talk
me on aim on "q67". Anyways, the song REQUIRES A CAPO ON 3. Enjoy.

If you be my star

I'll be your sky

you can hide underneath me and come out at night
E C
when I turn jet black and you show off your light
E D C
I live to let you shine
E D C
I live to let you shine

but you can skyrocket away from me
F# G Cadd9
and never come back if you find another galaxy
F# G Cadd9
far from here with more room to fly
F# G Cadd9
just leave me your stardust to remember you by

if you be my boat

a depth of pure blue just to probe curiosity

ebbing and flowing and pushed by a breeze

I live to make you free

far from here where the beaches are wide

just leave me your wake to remember you by
