[D] [Am] City bird, city [Em] bird Fly away [Am] from my window, from my [E] window
[A] Cause you don't [Am] sing Like the birds from [E] home sing
Your soul [Am] is dying
I set the table for the [E] ghosts in my home, [Em] my home
And pour the wine, raise the glass for the guests [Am] in my home
They're entering in [E] their skin and in their bones, [Em] still in their bones
The vision scares but none compares to the dread of [Am] drinking alone
[F] After the door was [A] turned to a tomb
[F] The old world, refugees old Were refused [A] by the banker
[F] They can never go [Gm] in, so I [E] let them in
Oh, [Am] city bird, city bird [E] Fly away from my window, [Em] from my window
Cause you don't [Am] sing Like [Em] the birds from home sing
Your soul is dying
[F] [G]
[F] [G]
[F] [A] [E] I [Am] lit the candle for [Em] the ghosts in my home, [E] my home
And say a prayer to please and care for the [Am] guests in my home
Bored in their sleep they [E] claw and scream the devil home
The devil's come home
But that nightmare does not compare to the demons in sleeping [Am] alone
[F] After the tower was [A] turned to a tomb
[F] The old world, refugees [Am] old Were refused by the banker
[C] And with nowhere to go, they wash [E] up on skid row
Oh, city [Am] bird, city [Em] bird Fly away from my window, from my window
[Bm] [E] Cause you [F#] don't sing [E] Like the birds from home sing
Your soul is [F] dying
