Like a bird on [E] a wire
Like [A] a drunk in a midnight [D]
choir
I [A] have tried in my [E] way to be [A] free
[D]
[A]
Like a worm [E] on a hook
[A] Like a knight from some old [D]-fashioned book
I [A] have saved all [E] my ribbons [A] for [D] thee
[A]
[D] If I, if I have [A] been unkind
[Bm] I hope that you can just let it [A] go by
[D] If I, if I have [A] been untrue
[Bm] I hope you know it was never [E] to you
[E]
[A] Like a baby
[E] stillborn
[A] Like a beast with [D] his horn
I [A] have torn [E] everyone rich [A] out of me
And I swear by [E] this song
And [A] by all that I have [D]
done wrong
I [A] will make it [E] all up [A] to [A] thee
[D]
I saw a beggar leaning on his
[A] wooden cross
[Bm] He said to me, you must not [A] ask for so much
[D]
Hey pretty woman, leaning in her [A]
darkened door
She [Bm]
cried to me, hey why not ask [E] for [A] more
[E]
Like [A] a bird on [E] a wire
Like a [A]
drunk in a midnight [D]
choir
I [A] have tried in [E] my way to [D] be free
[A]
