Selection chords: Ethan Cooper

D#7 A#
Like a Bird, on a Wire,
D#7 G#
Like a drunk, in a Midnight Choir.
D#7 A# D#7
I have trieed - in my way, - to be free,
D#7 A#
Like a fish on a hook,
G#
Like a knight in some old fashioned book,
D#7 A#
I have saved all my ribbons,
D#7
For Thee, and

G# D#7
If I, if I have been unkind,
G# A#
I just hope you will let it go by, and
G# D#7
If I, if I have been untrue,
G# A#
I hope you know it was never to you.

D#7 A#
Like a baby still born,
D#7 G#
Like a beast with his horn,
D#7 A#
I have torn every one,
A# D#7
Who reached out to me,

D#7 A#
But I swear, by this song, and
D#7 G#
By all, that I have done wrong,
D#7 A# D#7
Iʼll maake it all up to thee.

G#
I saw a young man, leaning,
G# D#7
On his wooden crutch,
G#
He called out to me,
G# A#
"Donʼt ask for so much.", and
G#
A young woman leaning,
G# D#7
In her darkened door,
G#
She cried out to me,
G# A#
"Why not ask for more?"
