G     
Talking to the songbird yesterday
                       G/F#  Em
Flew me to a place not far   away

She's a little pilot in my mind

Singing songs of love to pass the time

Gonna write a song so she can see
                          G/F#     Em
Give her all the love she gives to me

Talk of better days that have yet to come

I've never felt this love from any  -  one

She's not anyone

Verse 2 (Same chords as verse 1)
A man can never dream these kind of things
Especially when she came and spread her wings
Whispered in my ear the things i'd like
Then she flew away into the night
Gonna write a song so she can see
Give her all the love she gives to me
Talk of better days that have yet to come
Never felt this love from anyone

Chorus 
She's not anyone
She's not anyone
She's not anyone

Outro 
(Same chords as verse)

	Spot on ilya, this song sounds so much like Lennon. Hard to belive Liam wrote it, so simple, yet great.

	For me, this is the most beautiful song in the world. Liam wrote Songbird for Nicole Appleton, a Canadian, one of the members of the group All Saints (have you ever heard the song Never Ever?) If I'm not mistaken, Nicole was his fiancee then. They also have a son, Gene Appleton Gallagher. Songbird is on the Album Heathen Chemistry. For Chris Martin, vocalist of the band Coldplay, he also stated that Songbird was the most beautiful song in the world. It made him cry. It all fits, doesn't it? Nicole has a very nice voice, and the subject Songbird fits her. Liam is my number one crush, and I have to hand it to Nicole, LIAM GALLAGHER WROTE HER A SONG!! It's true that Liam's influence is John Lennon, and I'm sure that John Lennon (who will always be my favorite person apart from my mom and dad) would be so proud. I am a fan of The Beatles, but my #1 favorite song is Songbird. I've got to hand it to Liam, this song is incredibly beautiful and sweet. I could ask for no more. ;P

	You're welcome. The news made me sad too :(

No Picture D.J Wanna Be	#7 by D.J Mortensen at Jun 20, 1983 at 4:57 AM EST
	He did good job on this. It's a very cute little song with very easy chords that have been used a million times by other artist in the same progression( G - G/F# - Em), but it doesn't matter how difficult the chords are and all that bullshit. The lyrics are corny and very nice at the same time. At first I was expecting him to sound like Lennon, but his voice is so good on this track. He sounds like Richard Ashcroft to me on this tune. His voice is very clear and less scratching. He is actually singing really well. He hasn't sounded this good since the first album.

No Picture Bobby Lead Player	#8 by Bobby Parker at Aug 1, 1986 at 9:22 PM EST
	I think it's about a girl who makes him want to write songs, and inspires him. Kind of like his muse. "Bird" is just slang for girl, like chick. That's what makes this song so clever, she's his song 'bird'. Sigh.

	Has anybody heard the demo of Songbird? Personally i prefer it, although the album version is beautiful, the demo is electric and it sounds great!

No Picture sebastian Average	#10 by sebastian daalmeijer at Sep 13, 1990 at 3:54 PM EST
	surprised there arent any more comments on this one... anyways.. i think this song isnt confusing at all.. the only part that people may have doubts on is the "shes not anyone part".. these few words make the song... i think that when he says "shes not anyone" he is saying that.. she is someone... obviously someone important. shes not just anyone...

No Picture Will Average	#11 by Will Yost at Dec 16, 1992 at 11:49 AM EST

	>gasp!< You mean Nicole got pregnant, with Robbie as well? Some lucky girl... And by the way, It's really PILOT, not pirate. I listened to Liam playing Songbird in acoustic, and it's obviously PILOT. E-mail me if you have some additional infos about Liam, won't you? I'd like to hear it. Thanks! pJ ;P

	Oh I beg to differ Archer. This is Liam at his best.....Lennon would have been proud of this one

No Picture Maarten Average	#15 by Maarten Wuyts at Jul 11, 2003 at 12:55 AM EST
	Yes, actually she got pregnant with Robbie as well, but she was "forced" (according to her) to have an abortion by All Saint's managers, something that they both could never get over... I read it a while ago in some Robbie's site, since Nicole recently published the whole story in an autobiography, I think. There's a lot about it around the net, i.e. http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2002/10/09/1034061257016.html It makes me sad for Robbie, he wanted to keep the baby... She must be special, girl! :p
