Tonality
E7B
Like a bird on the wire
E7A
Like a drunk in an old midnight choir
E7BE7B
I have tried in my way to be free
E7B
Like a worm on a hook
E7A
Like a knight bent down in some old fashioned book
E7BE7
It was the shape of our love that twisted me
AE7
If I have been unkind, if I have been unkind
F#mE7
Oh I hope you can find a way to let it all go right on by
AE7
If I have been un, if I have been untrue, if I have been untrue
F#mB
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
E7BAE7
I have tried in my way to be free
