Big Bird Chords & Lyrics - Andrew Jackson Jihad

I'm [C]afraid of the social laziness that let [Am]Kitty Genovese die.
And I'm [Dm]afraid of the mob m[G]entality that makes o[C]therwise normal people go blind.
I'm [C]afraid of the way that the world works and I'm a[Am]fraid of the words in my notebooks.
I'm [Dm]afraid that you all kno[G]w that I am a p[C]ervert.

But the big red [F]bird that lives under the [G]city
doesn't [Am]give a damn [C]about me and it dies every [F]night.
By burning [Fm]alive.

I'm [C]afraid of my grandfathers cancer.
And I'm [Am]afraid of my mom's dying arm.
I'm [Dm]afraid that I've somehow c[G]aused my family h[C]arm.

I'm [C]afraid that the ones I love won't have e[Am]nough.
I'm [Dm]afraid that the ones I l[G]ove won't have en[C]ough.

It's [F]harder to be [G]yourself than it [Am]is to be anybody else.
[F] [G] [Am] ([Asus2])
I wish I were a little less of a coward
([Am]) [F] [G]
but the big red bird that lives under the city
doesn't [Am]give a damn ab[C]out me and it dies every [F]night.
So I bought a [Fm]knife.
I am a [C]knife. [Am] [F] [C]
