How is it you sing?

How can you jubilate,
C#
Sitting in cages,
F#m              C#
Never taking wing?
F#m
Outside the sky waits,
F
Beckoning, beckoning,
F#m              F#m - E - D#
Just beyond the bars.
D
How can you remain,

D                C
How is it you sing?
Hm
Whence comes this melody 
C#
constantly flowing?
F#m              C#
Is it rejoicing or merely halloing?
F#m
Are you discussing or fussing
F
Or simply dreaming?
F#m            F#m - E - D#
Are you crowing?
D
Are you screaming?
G
Ringdove and robinet,
Hm          C
Is it for wages,
D                C
Singing to be sold?
G
Have you decided it's
D
Safer in cages,
G
Singing when you're told?

(АNTHONY enters. Instantly he sees her 
and stands transfixed by her beauty)

D
My cage has many rooms,
G
Damask and dark.
D                 C
Nothing there sings,
Hm
Not even my lark.
Hm
Larks never will, you know,

When they're captive.

Teach me to be more adaptive.
F#m
Green finch and linnet bird,

If I cannot fly,
G
Let me sing.

АNTHONY (Gazing at her, sings softly):
Hm          C

Beheld its wonders,
G
From the pearls of Spain
D
To the rubies of Tibet,

Who would sail to Spain
G
For all its wonders,

When in Kearney's Lane
D                C
Lies the greatest wonder yet?
