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