My numbers were 2, 5, 8, 6 and 7. I cheated slightly at the end so it would resolve.

Lyrics

Capo 4

Verse 1 G C Little one Am Em Done no wrong G C Sold your soul Am Em For a song G Am Who are you? C D Who am I? G C Little one Am Em Try and try

Verse 2 Little bird Take to air Find the light Waiting there Where are you? Do you try? Little bird Fly and fly

Verse 3 Little soul Take the sky Find your nest By and by How to go? Where to fly? Little soul Cry and cry

And fly

Sweetly evocative, I can totally hear this being sung as a lullabye while rocking gently.

Solid picking and chord pattern. I like how the vocal floats over the guitar almost like a cello line. Nice use of few words to tell the story as well.

Great melody, it works well. You have created a lovely traditional sounding folk tune. Nicely done 😎
