[C] _ [F] _ [C] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ It's up like a [Bb] bird and it's [C] over the [F] city Three men are missing, I hear [C] the water cry
[F] Sure it must have been a bird [Bb] that flew [C] into the prison
[Bb] [C] Or one of these humanistic cells, [F] the water in the joy _ _
Early one morning [Bb] as the branchmen [C] they were sleeping
[F]
A little helicopter flew [C] across the sky
[F]
Down into the yard [Bb] where some prisoners [C] were walking
[Bb] Get [C] ready [F] for [C] inspection says [F] the water in the joy
And it's up like a bird [Bb] and it's [C] over the city
[F] Three men are missing, I hear the [C] water cry
[F] Sure it must have been a bird [Bb] that flew [C] into the prison
[Bb] Or [C] one of [F] these [C] humanistic cells, [F] the water in the joy
_ _ Down in the yard [Bb] through the pushing [C] and the shoving
[F] Three of the prisoners they climbed [C] upon the board
[F] And up and away [Bb] they went into the grey skies
I [C] think that [F] someone [C] escaped and says [F] the water in the joy
And it's up like a bird [Bb] and it's over [C] the city
[F]
Three men are missing, I hear the [C] water cry
[F] Sure it must have been a bird [Bb] that flew [C] into the prison
[Bb] Or [C] one of these humanistic cells, [F] the water in the joy
_ _ Search every hole, [Bb]
search every [C] nook and cranny
[F] Let no man rest until these [C] men are found
[F] For this cannot happen [Bb] to another [C] government
[Bb] I [C] think you'll [F] never [C] find them says [F] the water in the joy
And it's up like a bird [Bb] and it's over [C] the city
[F] Three men are missing, I hear the [C] water cry
[F] Sure it must have been a bird [Bb] that flew [C] into the prison
[Bb] Or [C] one of these humanistic cells, [F] the water in the joy
_ Over in the dolls [Bb] they were drinking [C] gin and brandy
[F] The minister for justice was soaking [C] up the sun
[F] When came this little message [Bb] that some prisoners [C] had escaped them
[Dm] I [C] think it's three of the provost says [F] the water in the joy
And it's up like a bird [Bb] and it's over [C] the city
[F] Three men are missing, I hear the [C] water cry
[F] Sure it must have been a bird [Bb] that flew into [C] the prison
[Bb] Or [C] one of [F] these [C] humanistic cells, [F] the water in the joy
And it's up like a bird [Bb] and it's over [C] the city
