The Night Is A Blackbird

         G             C
Well it tastes like a Sunday,
                 D
There should be music in the
Bm
front room,
        C         Bm
and the markets a'milling with the
D
people in the afternoon.
               G              C
And there's a question to be asked
          D        Bm
if you're drinking alone,
           C              Bm
It's what horse were you thrown from
      D
which riderless goes on?

C         D

     G                C
O it must have been a near thing,
       D          Bm
But no novelty to you,
         C              Bm
all the trains and the buses and the
D
cinemas too,
 G                         C
Breaking down, the bloody town, all
D                Bm
reared up like a snake,
     C            Bm
For all goodness sake don't
D
touch it or you'll never wake up...


[Chorus]
Continues after the ad
    C             D        C
His father misses him, His mother
       D
misses him,
     Bm             C
His lady dreams of kissing him,
 C             D     Bm
Bring the sun back, Bring the
 C
sun back,
 C               D
It's been dark, now it's cold,
          Bm    C
When the night falls,
 C             D     Bm
Bring the sun back, Bring the
 C
sun back,
 C                 D           G
It's a blackbird, he's in the belly.

[Verse]
          G          C          D
Well it's cold, it's cold, it's cold
         Bm
and it's cold,
              C              Bm
But you've a roof over your head and
  D
a comfortable bed,
          G                C
Now I'll be better, I'll be true,
      D             Bm
doing things like I ought to,
         C                 Bm
If this bird lands in the black
         D
lands of Tulla when it's due...
     C             D        C
His father misses him, His mother
       D
misses him,
     Bm             C
His lady dreams of kissing him,
 C             D     Bm
Bring the sun back, Bring the
 C
sun back,
 C               D
It's been dark, now it's cold,
          Bm    C
When the night falls,
 C             D     Bm
Bring the sun back, Bring the
 C
sun back,
 C                 D           G
It's a blackbird, he's in the belly.
 C                 D           G
It's a blackbird, he's in the belly.
               C          D
The night's a blackbird, We're in
    G
the belly.
