Florence + The Machine - Bird Song
It's basically the same chords throughout with alternating rhythm depending on
what style you sing in. Enjoy!
Standard Tuning EADGBE
Intro - C (2nd String 3rd fret)
(Acapella) Well I didn't tell anyone but a bird flew by,
saw what I done he set up a nest outside
and he sang about what I'd become,
He saCng so loud, saGng so clear
AmI was afraid all the Fneighbours would hear
so I Cinvited him inG just to reason with him,
Am F (strum once)
promised I wouldn't do it again
But he sang
Clouder and louder inside the house
and Gnow I couldn't get him out
so I Amtrapped him under a cardboard box
Fstood on it to make it stop
I Cpicked up the bird and above the dim
said Gthat's the last time you'll ever sing
CHeld him down, broke his necGk
Am taught him a lesson he wouldn't forgeFt
But Cin my Gdreams beAmgan to Fhear
that Cold Gfamiliar
Am (strum once) F (strum once)

I Copened my mouth to scream and shout
and I Gwaved my arms and flapped about
but I Amcouldn't scream and I couldn't shout
Fcouldn't scream and I couldn't shout
(repeat)
Cause the song was coming...
from my CmoutGh, from my AmmoutFh
from my CmoutGh, from my AmmoutFh
(repeat to fade)
