Flightless Bird American Mouth chords

[VERSE 1]

I was a q[C]uick wet boy

Diving too d[Am]eep for coins

All of your [F]straight blind eyes

Wide on my[G] plastic toys

And when the [C]cops closed the fair

I cut my l[Am]ong baby hair

Stole me a [F]dog-eared map

And called for you[G] everywhere

[CHORUS]

Have I f[C]ound you?

Flightless [Am]bird, j[F]ealous, w[G]eeping

[C]Or lost you?

[Am]American mouth

[F]Big bill l[G]ooming


[VERSE 2]

Now I’m a[C] fat house cat

Cursing my s[Am]ore blunt tongue

Watching the [F]warm poison rats

Curl through the w[G]ide/white fence cracks

Kissing on [C]magazine photos

Those [Am]fishing lures thrown in the [F]cold and clean

Blood of Christ[G] mountain stream


[CHORUS]

[C]Have I found you?

[Am]Flightless bird, [F]brown hair [G]bleeding

[C]Or lost you?

[Am]American mouth

[F]Big bill, [G]still going down
