Bird On A Leash

(início)

Am                       F
As crass as your mother, keen to the chance,
          C                        G
You would live by the seat of your pants,
             Am                         F
And you were taught you should have all things you can take,
             C                       G
It's getting caught that makes you a thief.
                    Am
By the skin of your teeth.
Am  F  C  G x 2
     F             C
It's true you were running for cover,
    G                          Am
The worst of the worst was not done,
          F                   C
You can't find comfort in any other,
G                         Am
Set in your ways like the sun.
        Am               F
Not one tune had changed like scattered leaves,
        C                         G
All her clothes strung out on the eves.
          Am                         F
There's a reckoning that's coming to make something right,
          C                        G
There's a man here who's picking a fight,
                   Am           F          C
It's on like a light.
   G                     Am
No future or history too bright.

     F             C
It's true you were running for cover,
    G                          Am
The worst of the worst was not done,
          F                   C
You can't find comfort in any other,
G                         Am
Set in your ways like the sun.
F    C       G        Am
Shee----ee's worrying me,
F              C
A bird on some leash,
       G                    Am
Flying nowhere but dying to be.

A bird on some leash,

Flying nowhere but dying to be.
F              C
Caught by some pride,
      G                  Am
Only virtue will get you untied.
