Rare Bird

INTRO: G  Em  Am  D

G                      Em
Rare bird, I know your loneliness
            Am                      D
Born into a crowded nest and given away
    G                                    Em
Solitaire girl, your voice crying in the wilderness
                       Am                                  D
Where suffering brings holiness, at least that's what they say
Am                         Em      D
Rare bird, I wish you good company


G                     Em
Rare bird I know your sorrow
                  Am                       D
It rings a little hollow with every passing day
         G                               Em
It's not fair girl, they want a piece of all of you
                   Am                                 D
To form a line and follow you with every word that you say
Am                    Em        D
Rare bird, I wish you sanctuary

          Am
With your razor-wire and pitfalls

My way of climbing walls
                                      Em
And finding where the china dolls are hidden
Am
Words can be misunderstood

My intentions were all good
                                  D
There's nothing here not worth forgiving


INSTRUMENTAL: G   Em   Am   D   Am   Em D


    Am
I'm not the kind to hover near

Or stand in line to catch your ear
                                  Em
But I just want to get things clear between us
  Am
I know how to disappear

And leave by the backdoor dear
                          D
Make sure that no one here has seen us


G                           Em
Rare bird, I don't want you to go down
            Am                                         D
Here on the poor side of town, there's nothing left to say
          G                             Em
Just this prayer girl, we'll go on from here unbound
              Am                       D
Meet again on higher ground, some uncloudy day
Am                       Em             D
Rare bird, just a little prayer from me
