5 -4 4 5 5 -4
Like a bird on a wire,
6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 6 -5
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 4 -3 4
I have tried in my way to be free.
5 -4 4 5 5 -4
Like a worm on a hook,
6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 6 -5
Like a knight from some old fashioned book
4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 4 -3 4
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
7 7 7 7 7 -8 7 8
If i, if I have been unkind,
7 7 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -6 6
I hope that you can just let it go by.
7 7 7 7 7 -8 7 8
If i, if I have been untrue
7 7 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -6 6
I hope you know it was never to you.
5 -4 4 4 5 -4
Like a baby, stillborn,
6 6 6 -6 6 -5
Like a beast with his horn
4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 -4 -4 5 -4 4
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
5 -4 4 5 5 -4
But I swear by this song
6 6 6 6 6 -6 6 -5
And by all that I have done wrong
4 -4 5 -5 -4 4 -3 4
I will make it all up to thee.
7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 -8 7 8
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -6 6
He said to me, you must not ask for so much.
7 7 7 7 7 7 7 -8 7 8
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
7 7 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -6 6
She cried to me, hey, why not ask for more?
5 5 -4 4 5 5 -4
Oh like a bird on a wire,
6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 6 -5
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 4 -3 4
I have tried in my way to be free |
