Bird on the Wire Original Written and Performed by Leonard Cohen This Version Jimmy Barnes and Troy Cassar Daley From the Jimmy Barnes album: Double Happiness Tabbed by magga1976 Capo 5th Fret

Like a ^Gbird on a wi^Dre, like a dru^Gnk in a midnight cho^Cir I have t^Gried in my ^Dway to be free^G Like a ^Gfish on a ^Dhook, like a k^Gnight from some old-fashioned ^Cbook I have ^Gsaved all my ^Dribbons for t^Ghee

^CIf I, if I have been unkin^Gd ^AmI hope that you can let it go by^D ^CIf I, if I have been untrue^G, ^AmI hope you know it was never to you^D.

^GLike a baby stillbo^Drn, like a b^Geast with his ^Chorn I have t^Gorn everyon^De who reached out for m^Ge. ^GBut I swear by this s^Dong and by ^Gall that I have done w^Crong ^GI will make it all u^Dp to the^Ge.

^CI saw a young man leaning on his wooden cr^Gutch ^AmHe called out to me, "Don’t ask f^Dor so much." ^CAnd a young woman leaning in her darkened d^Goor, ^AmShe cried out to me, "Why not ask f^Dor more?"

Like a b^Gird on a wir^De, like a drun^Gk in a midnight choi^Cr I have tr^Gied in my w^Day to be f^Cre^Ge
