Bird On A Wire chords

CAPO: 4th Fret

[INTRO C]

Like a bird on a [G]wire, like a [C]drunk in a midnight [F]choir
I have [C]tried in my [G]way to be [C]free [F] [C]
Like a worm on a [G]hook, like a [C]knight in an [C7]old fashioned [F]book
I have [C]saved all my [G]ribbons for [C]thee [F] [C]

And if I___ have been unkind
I [F]hope you will let it go [G]by
And if [C]I___, I have been untrue
Well, I [F]hope you know, it was [G]not to you

Like a [C]babe still[G]born, like a [C]beast with his [F]horn
I have [C]torn every[G]one who reached out to [C]me [F] [C]
But I swear, by this [G]song and by [C]all that I have done [F]wrong
That I will [C]make it, [G]make it all up to [C]thee [F] [C]

INSTRUMENTAL: [C] [G] [C] [F] [C] [G] [C] [F] [C]

I saw a man leaning on his crutch
And he s[F]aid to me, "Why do you [G]ask for so much?"
But I saw a [C]woman, she was leaning in a door
And she [F]cried out to me, "Why not [G]ask [G7]for [G]more"

Like a [C]bird on a [G]wire, like a [C]drunk in a midnight [F]choir
I have [C]tried in my [G]way to be [C]free [F] [C]
But I swear, by this [G]song and by [C]all that I have done [F]wrong
That I will [C]make it, [G]make it all up to [C]thee [F] [C]
