Tonality
E7B
Like a Bird, on a Wire,
E7A
Like a drunk, in a Midnight Choir.
E7BE7
I have trieed - in my way, - to be free,
E7B
Like a fish on a hook,
A
Like a knight in some old fashioned book,
E7B
I have saved all my ribbons,
E7
For Thee, and
AE7
If I, if I have been unkind,
AB
I just hope you will let it go by, and
AE7
If I, if I have been untrue,
AB
I hope you know it was never to you.
E7B
Like a baby still born,
E7A
Like a beast with his horn,
E7B
I have torn every one,
BE7
Who reached out to me,
E7B
But I swear, by this song, and
E7A
By all, that I have done wrong,
E7BE7
Iʼll maake it all up to thee.
A
I saw a young man, leaning,
AE7
On his wooden crutch,
A
He called out to me,
AB
"Donʼt ask for so much.", and
A
A young woman leaning,
AE7
In her darkened door,
A
She cried out to me,
AB
"Why not ask for more?"
