[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Am
Eyes to take you dancing,
Dm/A
Mouth to leave your wife,
G5 Em
Legs to run away with, and you wonder why
Am Dm/A
Heart that makes you bypass every other girl
G5 Em
Smile that keeps you grinning at the madness of this world
[Chorus]
Am Em
And like the blackbird on the wire
Am Em
I will not take prey on you,
Em Am
You wouldn't want me to
B Em
For I'm too soft for such a thing
Am Em
And like the blackbird on the wire
Am Em
I just watch you by
Em Am
The tears I knew I'd cry
B Em
Fall unnoticed down below
[Verse 2]
Am
And with a tongue built from quick silver
Dm/A
And a character of steel
G5 Em
They actually come and ask me how I feel
[Interlude]
Am Dm/A G5 Em
Am Em Am Em
Em Am B Em
Am Em Am Em
Em Am B Em
[Chorus]
Am Em
And like the blackbird on the wire
Am Em
I will not take prey on you,
Em Am
You wouldn't want me to
B Em
For I'm too soft for such a thing
Am Em
And like the blackbird on the wire
Am Em
I just watch you by
Em Am
The tears I knew I'd cry
B Em
Fall unnoticed down below
[Outro]
Am
down below,
Am
down below,
Am
down below
(to fade)
