Andrew Bird (born July 11, 1973) is an American musician. He was born in Lake Bluff, Illinois and resides in the Chicago area. Bird is a singer, a violinist and, since 2004, a guitarist. He is also an accomplished whistler.
His early work, which echoed gypsy jazz and traditional folk, has led into his current sound, which mixes rock with more broad compositions. His years of solo song-craft have now enabled him to produce a sound that is uniquely his own.

Start by playing A and D while he's whistling
A D
When I was just a little boy
A
I threw away all of my action toys
D A D
While I became obsessed with Operation
A D
With hearts and minds and certain glands
A
you gotta learn to keep a steady hand
D A D
and thus began my morbid fascination
E F#m F#m E
Tore the spines from out of all of these self-help books
F#m D
Made myself a gun that not only shoots but looks so real
E A D
Yeah, it shoots through steel with rays of dark matter
A D A D
Rays of dark matter
It's really just the same through the rest of the song. It's an amazing song and
easy to learn. I hope you have fun. d:)
