City Bird

Am
City bird
      Em
City bird
Fly away
         Am
From my window
          E7
From my window
                  Am
'Cause you don't sing
                     Em7      E7
Like the birds from home sing
              Am
Your song is dying

                                  E
I set the table for the ghosts in my home
 Em
My home
            E7
And pour the wine and raise a glass
          Em               Am
For the guests in my home

Am                               Em
They enter in, in their skin and in their bones
                Em7
Still in their bones
      E7                    Em7
The vision scares, but none compares
                           Am
To the dread of drinking alone

Fmaj7                             Am
After the tower was turned to a tomb
F
The underworld refugees all
Am
Were refused by the banker
         F
They can never go in
              E
So I let them in
  E7          Am
Ah-ha, city bird

      Em
City bird
Fly away
        Am
From my window
From my window
        E7          Am
'Cause you don't sing
                    Em      E7
Like the birds from home sing
              Am
Your song is dying

E            Am                      Em7
I light the candle for the ghosts in my home
    E7
My home
And say a prayer to please send care
        Em            Am
For the guests in my home

                                    E7
But in their sleep, they claw and scream "the Devil home"
E
"The devil's come home"
     E7
But that nightmare does not compare
                          Am
To the demons in sleeping alone

Fmaj7                             Am
After the tower was turned to a tomb
F
The underworld refugees all
Am
Were refused by the banker
         F
They can never go in
              E
So I let them in
  E7          Am
Ah-ha, city bird
       Em
City bird
Fly away
       Am
From my window
       Em
From my window
       E           Am
'Cause you don't sing
                    E7
Like the birds from home sing
       Am
Your song is dying
