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.

INTRO
A(REPEAT x4) A7
VERSE 1
D A Bm
Don't sell me anything.
Bm G D
Your one time offer, so uncalled for
D A
You call it piece of mind
A D A Bm
Cause I can see your house from here.
G D A
Now the leaves have fallen, dear
A D A Bm
I can see you're just a little privateer
G A D
As your confession draws more near
CHORUS (FINGERPICKED)
Bm F# Bm
Time and again, I find I'm listless
Bm F#
Or rather, fistless
F# Bm A D
In time, oh, that's what I find
D Bm F#
So carry me to Mecca
F# Bm F#
With what you may divine
F# Bm G
Take me with you, take me with you
G A(strum)
Don't leave me behind
VERSE 2 (SAME AS VERSE 1)
Oh cause I, I don't want your life insurance
Home, auto, health, flood, and fire insurance
Oh, just make, please make this basic inference
And speak of me in the present tense
Oh cause I, I can see your ship from here
Now the weather, so bright and clear
I can see you're just a little profiteer
As your confession draws more near
G A D (REPEAT X2)
As your confession draws more near
As your confession draws more near
