[Verse 1]
Bm
I've come to know why the strange bird cries
A
when she listens to the sound of the waves at night.
Bm
Breaking on the shore like a herd stampeding,
A
hooves to the rhythm of the bird's wings beating
Bm
beating, beating, I'm hoping that she sees me.
A
Wrapped around my heart is a centipede, feeding.
BmA
Feeding, feeding, feeding, it eats me up
[Chorus]
BmA
Every sound that you make,
E
I can hear your heartache breaking, shivering, shaking.
BmAE
Babe, are you giving what you're taking away?
BmA
Every move that you make,
E
I can feel my heartache mending, melting, bending.
BmAE
Babe, are you getting what I'm sending your way?
[Bridge]
Bm A E [x2]
[Verse 2]
Bm
It'll be ok she says she'll see me in the morning.
A
Thunderheads ahead of us, crashing and forming.
Bm
Forming, forming, maybe it's a warning.
A
Heard you slipping into bed early in the morning.
Bm
Morning, morning, come divide the night.
ABm
Crying at the sight of a concrete bird in flight
A
I've died many times
[Chorus 2]
BmA
Every sound that you make,
E
I can hear your heartache breaking, shivering, shaking.
BmAE
Babe, are you giving what you're taking away?
BmA
Every move that you make,
E
I can feel my heartache mending, melting, bending.
BmAE
Babe, are you getting what I'm sending your way?
