Bird On The Wire chords Fairport Convention (Leonard Cohen) Capo IV C F C F C F C
Like a Cbird on a Fwire Like a Cdrunk in a midnight Fchoir I have Ctried in my Fway To be Cfree
Like a Cworm on a Fhook Like a Cknight from some old-fashioned Fbook I have Csaved all my Fribbons C (Csus4 C)* For thee
If FI have been unCkind Dm C (Csus4 C)* I hope you will just let it go by And if FI have been unCtrue Dm F (Gsus4 F)* I hope you know it was not unto you
Like a Cbaby stillFborn Like a Cbeast with it's Fhorns I have Ctorn every Fone C (Csus4 C)* And reached out for thee
Let us Cswear by this Fsong And by Call I have done Fwrong That I Cwill make it Fall C (Csus4 C)* Up to thee
F C (Csus4 C)* I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden cross Dm C (Csus4 C)* He said to me do not ask for someone?
And a Fwoman standing in her Cdarkened door Dm F (Gsus4 F)* She cried to me hey, why not ask for more?
Like a Cbird on a Fwire Like a Cdrunk in a midnight Fchoir I have Ctried in my Fway To be Cfree
