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 ^Fbird on a wi^Gre, like a dru^Fnk in a midnight cho^Fir I have t^Fried in my ^Gway to be free^F Like a ^Ffish on a ^Ghook, like a k^Fnight from some old-fashioned ^Fbook I have ^Fsaved all my ^Gribbons for t^Fhee

^FIf I, if I have been unkin^Fd ^DmI hope that you can let it go by^G ^FIf I, if I have been untrue^F, ^DmI hope you know it was never to you^G.

^FLike a baby stillbo^Grn, like a b^Feast with his ^Fhorn I have t^Forn everyon^Ge who reached out for m^Fe. ^FBut I swear by this s^Gong and by ^Fall that I have done w^Frong ^FI will make it all u^Gp to the^Fe.

^FI saw a young man leaning on his wooden cr^Futch ^DmHe called out to me, "Don’t ask f^Gor so much." ^FAnd a young woman leaning in her darkened d^Foor, ^DmShe cried out to me, "Why not ask f^Gor more?"

Like a b^Fird on a wir^Ge, like a drun^Fk in a midnight choi^Fr I have tr^Fied in my w^Gay to be f^Fre^Fe
