Verse:
C#       Fm  E                A#
  Candy says, Iʼve come to hate my body,
D#m              G#           C#             G#
  and all that it requires, in this world.
C#       Fm  E               A#
  Candy says, Iʼd like to know completely,
D#m             G#               C#          G#
  what other souls discreetly, talk about.

Chorus:
C#          F#                    D#
Iʼm gonna watch the blue birds fly,
G#
over my shoulder.
C#          F#                    D#
Iʼm gonna watch them pass me by,
G#
maybe when Iʼm older.
B                      F#
What do you think Iʼd see,
  G#                      B
if I could walk away from me?

Verse:
C#       Fm  E            A#
  Candy says, I hate the quiet places,
D#m                G#                 C#
 that cause the smallest taste, of what
     G#
will be.
C#       Fm  E           A#
  Candy says, I hate the big decisions,
D#m           G#                  C#
 that cause endless revisions, in my mind.

G#

Chorus:
C#          F#                    D#
Iʼm gonna watch the blue birds fly,
G#
over my shoulder.
C#          F#                    D#
Iʼm gonna watch them pass me by,
G#
maybe when Iʼm older.
B                      F#
What do you think Iʼd see,
  G#                      B
if I could walk away from me?
