[verse]
CThe finches and sparrows build Gnests in my chimney
what rFemains of the small flightless birds that you Fmfailed to protect
Cbut their yolk isn't Geasy in fact it's a Fdrag
as they're blowing through cornfields and Fmmountains of Crags
Call over the Gsuburbs across the great Flawns
crop-dusting gardens all over this Amtown
[chorus]
Cbut nobody Gcares when it gets in their Fhair
Cit gets in their Glungs as it floats through the Fair
Cit gets in the Gfood that they buy and preFpare
but nobody D7cares when it gets in their Ghair F
[whistle]
[middle]
Facross the great chasms and schisms and the sudden aneurisms
where the black ink will Cdrip across the Gcrespice of your Feyes
Fand your teeth are worth more than you can spare-
-oh don't Ctell me that it Gjust isn't Ffair
Fdon't speak about the cycles of life 'cause your thoughts are so soft
C G F D7 G (fill 1)
I could cut 'em with a spork or a bride's kniii-i-fe
Fand the wine made our Cmouths Gtoo Floose
Fsuch a reckless choice of Cwords G F
F C G (F#)
when you tell me that I'm too "abstruse"
I just thought it was a kind of Gbird
(F#)
(I swear) I just stood there
not saying a Fword
not saying a Fword
not saying a D7word G
