Bird On The Wire

G   D   C   G

[Verse 1]
                    D           
Like a bird, on the wire, like a 
 G                   C
drunk in a midnight choir
       G           D          G
I have tried in my ways to be free
                  D           
Like a fish, on a hook, like a 
 G                            C
knight in some old fashioned book
       G            D           G
I have saved all my ribbons for thee


[Verse 2]
       C                  G
And if I, if I have been unkind
       Am                       G
I just hope you, will let it go by

       C                  G
And if I, if I have been untrue
       Am                          
I just hope you know, it was never 
   D
to you


[Verse 3]
       G          D            G 
Like a baby, stillborn, like a 
             C
beast with his horn
       G         D                
I have torn everyone who reached 
      G
out to me
                     D            
But I swear, by this song, and by 
G                    C
all that I have done wrong
G            D         G
I'll make it all up to thee


[Verse 4]
        C                        
I saw a young man, leaning on his 
       G
wooden crutch
          Am                       
He called out to me, "Don't ask for
    G
 so much"
      C                          
And a young woman, leaning in her 
          G
darkened door
          Am                       
She cried out to me, "Hey, why not 
        D
ask for more"

Like a bird, on the wire, like a

drunk in a midnight choir
       G           D          C  
I have tried in my ways to be 
   G
free
