Biography:
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.

Em Am Em Am
Those that would judge would say you're aloof
Em Am Em
But you know the truth is a seed
Am D
You know what you need is a conflagration
Em Am
Cause when I see the blood
Em Am
And the bits of your broken tooth
Em Am Em
It gives me the proof that I need
Am
It's the proof that you bleed
D
It's a revelation
G D7
Yeah it's a revelation, it's a revelation
G C D
I thought you were a life-sized paper doll
G C D
Propped up in the hardware store
G C D
Propped up on the front lawn watching the parade
G C D
Of those legionnaires with two-by-four's
Em
As they're marching off to war
D
Yeah they're marching off to war
Em G
I didn't know what you were made of
Em G
The color of your blood, what you're afraid of
Em G
Are you made of calcium or are you carbon-based
Em G
And if you're made of calcium I'll have to take a taste
C G
Cause, listen, calcium is deadly and tender to the tooth
C G C
And it's one sure-fire way to know if you're MX-missile-proof, oh no
D
Or if you're just aloof
Em G
You were in the ground in late November
Em G
When the leaves and earth are damp
Em G
Did you, did you think they would remember
Em C
How you almost made state champ
G
Cause when you're running for the game against Alfonzo
C G
And you fell upon the ground and chipped a tooth
C G
Oh no, listen, it didn't really half surprise us
D
To learn that you aren't really MX-missile-proof
G D
Oh, I thought you were a life-sized paper doll
G C D
And you're propped up in the hardware store
G D
You were propped up on the front lawn watching the parade

Of those legionnaires with two-by-four's
