{c: }
Like a [A] bird on the [E7] wire
Like a [A] drunk in a [A7] midnight [D] choir
I have [A] tried in my [E7] way to be [A] free [Asus4] [A]
{c: }
Like a [A] worm on a [E7] hook
Like a [A] knight from some [A7] old fashioned [D] book
I have [A] saved all my [E7] ribbons for [A] thee [Asus4] [A]
{c: }
[D] If I if I have been un[A]kind
I [Bm] hope that you can just let it go [A] by
[D] If I if I have been un[A]true
I [Bm] hope you know it was never to [E7] you [E7sus4] [E7]

Like a [A] baby still[E7]born
Like a [A] beast [A7] with his [D] horn

But I [A] swear by this [E7] song
And by [A] all that [A7] I have done [D] wrong
I will [A] make it [E7] all up to [A] thee [Asus4] [A]
{c: }
[D] I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden [A] crutch
[Bm] He said to me you must not ask for so [A] much [Asus4] [A]
[D] And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened [A] door
[Bm] She cried to me hey why not ask for [E7] more [E7sus4] [E7]
{c: }
Like a [A] bird on the [E7] wire
Like a [A] drunk in a [A7] midnight [D] choir
I have [A] tried in my [E7] way to be [D] free [A]
