[D] [C] [G]
[D] [F]
[C]
[F] [G]
[D] I really had to go downtown
Go downtown and [C] hang around
[D] I was not prepared for what [Bb] I found
A baby bird was [F] lying there on the ground
[A] [G]
[D] Lying there in [F] front of my [D] feet
Dying there right next to the street
I picked it up and [Bb] felt its heat
[D] I tried to [G] wake her [F] up but she wanted to [G] [F] sleep
I'm [G]
[D] trying and I'm trying and I'm trying
[Am] But I can't get away from the thought
[D] It's dying and it's dying and it's dying
[Am] And it's something that I couldn't stop
[D] You're lying and you're lying
You say it's [Am] gonna make it cause I know that's not
[C]
[B] [A] [D] Hanging on the [F] telephone [D] line
[G] Witnessing a [C] million crimes
[D] I've been [G] alone all [Bb] this [D] time
I'd call [G] someone but [F] I don't have the time
I [A] [G] [D] don't care for boys [C] or [D] girls
I'd rather have a [F] round with the [D] birds
Humans [D] own the black [Bb] world
They'd kill your whole [F] family for a string [G] of [F] pearls
[A] [G] I'm [D]
trying and I'm trying [Am] but I can't get away from
[D] We're dying and we're dying and we're dying
[Am] Our insides are starting to rot
[D] You're lying and you're lying
You say it's [Am] okay cause maybe we're
In

[D] [C] [G]
[D] [F] [A]
[D] If I had wings I'd [F] try to fly
[D] But they don't make it [F] harder to die
[D] You can take [Bb] it up to the sky
[D] But no [G] one ever [F] stays that [G] high
High
[D] I'm trying and I'm trying and I'm trying
[Am] But I can't get away from the thought
[D] I'm dying and I'm dying
I [Am] already gave them really all that I am
I'm [D]
dying but I say [Am] that I'm cool
Cause I really am
[Cm] [B] [Am]
