[Verse 1]
G
I saw a blackbird
C C/B G
Thirteen ways
G G/F# Em
And then strew a fist many
C C/B Am
Mountains away
C D
My evangelism felt
G G/F# C
Brutally taken
G G/F# Em
By breezes that rubbed me
C C/B Am
And lifted light raven

[Verse 2]
G
I stretched to borrow
C C/B G
Fine antebellum
G G/F# Em
To encase all the scrapings
C C/B Am
Of us civilised fellow
C D
I wanted to stash them
G G/F# C
To secretive cages
G G/F# Em
With that fabulous blackbird
C C/B Am
Of thirteen stages
