D
The smell of man that now scents your wings

   Bm
And whiff that brings

   D
A change in things

D
Banished forever from the sacred nest

        Bm
On your snow-white breast

               D
I feel there’s still unrest

       G           Em
I said hey,        darlin’ one

     D              riff
Your time has come

G      Em
Hey,   darlin’ one

A            riff

    D
Five hundred midnights since have passed

       Bm
Since I held you fast

         D
You were safe at last

D
Wax burnt my finger like a clear blue flame

   Bm
So young and tame

         D
I was to blame

               G     Em
N’ I call your name, darlin’ one

      D                   riff
Your time has come

       G    Em
I said hey, darlin’ one

      A                   D
Your time      has just begun

solo (fill in the blanks!)


Bm (Bm7?)
I cupped my hands around you

      F#m7
And I swore you would fly

   Bm
My tears fell through the dirt

     F#m7 (?)
As I heaved you to the sky

G    Em
Hey, darlin’ one

     D
Your time has come

     Bm (?)
Your time has come

G    Em
Hey, darlin’

Darlin’

          D
Darlin   one

G    Em                         D       riff
Hey, darlin’ one more time has come
