G D C

[Verse 1]
G D
Out of the shadows, a song takes flight,
Em C
Wings of the morning cutting through the night.
G D
Echoes of freedom, carried on the breeze,
C G
A melody of hope through the tallest trees.

[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
Through the struggle, through the pain,
C G
The blackbird sings in the pouring rain.

[Chorus]
G D
Blackbird rising, higher and higher,
Em C
A heart full of rhythm, a soul on fire.
G D
Carving a path through an endless sky,
C G
Blackbird rising, we’re learning to fly.

[Verse 2]
G D
Strings are humming, a beat so pure,
Em C
Every note a promise, every word a cure.
G D
Bound by the rhythm, we lift as one,
C G
The dawn of a journey has just begun.

[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
Through the silence, through the storm,
C G
A voice of truth in a world reborn.

A heart full of rhythm, a soul on fire.
G D
Carving a path through an endless sky,
C G
Blackbird rising, we’re learning to fly.

[Bridge]
Am Em
With every step, the ground shakes below,
C G
Breaking chains, letting love overflow.
Am Em
In the face of the dark, we light the flame,
C D
Blackbird calling, calling our name.

[Chorus]
G D
Blackbird rising, higher and higher,
Em C
A heart full of rhythm, a soul on fire.
G D
Carving a path through an endless sky,
C G
Blackbird rising, we’re learning to fly.

[Outro]
G D
Sing it loud, sing it strong,
Em C
Blackbird rising, where we all belong.
G D
Lift your voice, let it soar,
C G
Blackbird rising, forevermore.
