Laura Marling - Little Bird Lyrics






O Rosie
Where have you been
I couldn't save you
But I tried, Rosie
I tried

Why did you run
From everyone
Who only tried to
Love you, Rosie
Only tried

Little bird, if I only knew
Maybe I'd be more like you
With a feather in my wing
Is it spring?
Do I sing?

Why do you run
From everyone
Who only tries to
Love you, only tries...

Maybe I like pleasure pain
Of going and coming back again
What I leave behind
I come back to find
It's no longer mine

So why not run
From everyone
Who only tries to
Love you, Rosie, only tries...

Little bird, if I only knew
Maybe I'd be more like you
With a feather in my wing
Is it spring?
Do I sing?

Maybe I like pleasure pain
Of going and coming back again
What I leave behind
I come back to find
It's no longer mine

Little bird, if I only knew
Maybe I'd be more like you

With a feather in my wing
Is it spring?
Do I sing?

  1. P.... F....

    The first time I heard her on "Spotify" and she was my first "Favorite" there. When I heard a second song, I ordered everything from Amazon I could get ( used ;-) ). I'm an artist too (paintings, writings and much more) and I am so impressed in every way from her voice, her music, her writings. It is a grace, a pleasure, a gift, it means so much more to me. Thank you so much Laura !! Greetings from Switzerland from a german "friend" !!

  9. G.... B....

    First she breathes and then she spreads beauty.

  10. T.... V....

    You can see and HEAR her tuning her guitar in this video: Laura Marling - Untitled New Song NOT on New Album - Chicago May 23 2013 ("David") or ("There is")
    Much different from how I am usually tuning...
    Laura sure knows what she is doing! Heavenly playing AND singing!

  11. F.... B....

    2:33 <-- so u can repeat for eternity

  12. j.... j....

    So far I've worked out the tuning: F F C F E C. She doesn't use the bottom string as far as I can gather so I just tuned it to the same F as the 2nd string. When I have a bit more time I can try and figure out the picking technique but I thought I'd post the tuning here for someone else to have a go aswell, struggling with it a bit myself.

    Absolutely gorgeous guitar parts in this song.

  13. J.... D....

    also 2:36 lol she forgot what bit it was

  14. J.... D....

    Utterly beautiful chord sequence and playing
