A E A D
Like a bird on the wire like a drunk in a midnight choir
A E Asus4 A
I have tried in my way to be free
A E A D
Like a worm on a hook like a knight from some old-fashioned book
A E Asus4 A
I have saved all my ribbons for thee
D A
If I if I have been unkind
Bm A
I hope that you can just let it go by
D A
If I if I have been untrue
Bm E
I hope you know it was never to you


Like a baby stillborn like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me
But I swear by this song and by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch
He said to me You must not ask for so much
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door
She cried to me Hey why not ask for more

A E A D
Like a bird on the wire like a drunk in a midnight choir
A E D A
I have tried in my way to be free
