Selection chords: Ethan Cooper

     E       B
Like a bird on the wire
      E            A
Like a drunk in an old midnight choir
      E       B       E    B
I have tried in my way to be free

     E      B
Like a worm on a hook
      E                A
Like a knight bent down in some old fashioned book
         E       B         E
It was the shape of our love that twisted me

       A                    E
If I have been unkind, if I have been unkind
         F#m                  E
Oh I hope you can find a way to let it all go right on by
       A                              E
If I have been un, if I have been untrue, if I have been untrue
                   F#m                     B
Itʼs just that I thought a lover had to be some kind of liar too

Like a little baby, stillborn
Like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me

But I swear by this song
By all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee

Ah donʼt cry, donʼt, donʼt cry, donʼt cry no more
Itʼs over now, itʼs over, babe, donʼt cry no more
I say donʼt cry, donʼt cry, donʼt cry, donʼt cry anymore
Itʼs over, itʼs finished, itʼs completed and has, it has been paid for

Like a bird on the wire
Like a drunk in some old midnight choir
      E       B       A  E
I have tried in my way to be free
