[C]There's a pine warbler [Am7]sitting on a hollow limb
he s[Em]eems to have the whole morning o[F]ut right in front of him
and ev[C]erything he sings from the br[Am7]anch that he's sitting on
se[Fmaj7]ems to hush the leaves and the c[F]olors all around
First he s[C]ings and then he g[G]oes.
and what i[C]t means? It's hard[G] to know.
