The Birds Will Sing For Us by Ed Harcourt
From the album 'From Every Sphere'
Tabbed by Toby Martin
E G#m C#m G#m Gm
Little girl don't be sad I've set your eyes on fire
F#m B A
Don't say I'm a liar that I don't love you
E G#m C#m G#m Gm
Something has brought me down but I won't give up hope
F#m B A
It's hard for you to cope when I'm around you
E B/Eb
Let the sun break through
C#m A
The cracks within my room
E B/Eb
The grey sky fades to blue
C#m A
It might wash away this gloom
E G#m C#m G#m Gm
Alcohol, company, I need to readjust
F#m B A
From this place of dust let's go drink tonight
E G#m C#m G#m Gm
And at the bar we'll drink 'til dawn and I'll pretend I'm dead
F#m B A
Whilst resting my poor head by the neon light
E B/Eb
Let the sun break through
C#m A
The cracks within my room
E B/Eb
The grey sky fades to blue
C#m A
It will wash away this gloom
E B/Eb
Let the sun break through
C#m A
The cracks within my room
E B/Eb
The grey sky fades to blue
C#m A
It might wash away this gloom
Bm – E – Bm – E – Bm – D – A – C – E
(PLAY CHORUS ONCE WITHOUT SINGING)
E G#m C#m B
The birds will sing for us but we all die in the end
The birds will sing for us but we all die in the end
The birds will sing for us the birds will sing for us
The birds will sing for us but we all die in the end
