F7C
Like a Bird, on a Wire,
F7A#
Like a drunk, in a Midnight Choir.
F7CF7
I have trieed - in my way, - to be free,
F7C
Like a fish on a hook,
A#
Like a knight in some old fashioned book,
F7C
I have saved all my ribbons,
F7
For Thee, and
A#F7
If I, if I have been unkind,
A#C
I just hope you will let it go by, and
A#F7
If I, if I have been untrue,
A#C
I hope you know it was never to you.
F7C
Like a baby still born,
F7A#
Like a beast with his horn,
F7C
I have torn every one,
CF7
Who reached out to me,
F7C
But I swear, by this song, and
F7A#
By all, that I have done wrong,
F7CF7
Iʼll maake it all up to thee.
A#
I saw a young man, leaning,
A#F7
On his wooden crutch,
A#
He called out to me,
A#C
"Donʼt ask for so much.", and
A#
A young woman leaning,
A#F7
In her darkened door,
A#
She cried out to me,
A#C
"Why not ask for more?"
