The Bird George Jones
Capo on the 3rd fret.
Verse 1:
[C/G] I curse the day she bought me that old bird
Squalking,talking,telling everything it ever [G]heard
[C/G] She never would have known about Big [F]Betty Brown and me
But[C/G] he fowled up and told her some t[G]hings you won't be[C/G]lieve
Verse 2:
[C/G] Oh my woman moved out on me today
And left that old stool pigeon parrot trembling in his [G]cage
[C/G] I hollered from the front porch and s[F]topped her at the curb
And[C/G] the last thing i [G]gave her was the [C/G]bird
Chorus:
[C/G] Oh the last thing i gave her was the [F]bird
And she returned the favor with a few selected [C/G]words
[F]I don't have to worry now what's being over[C/G]heard
'cause the last thing i [G]gave her was the [C/G]bird
Verse 3:
[C/G] She sat the cage beside her on the seat
And left two streaks of firestone smokin' on the st[G]reet
[C/G] The neighbors ran for cover they coul[F]d see she was disturbed
[C/G]'cause the last thing i [G]gave her was the [C/G]bird
Chorus (x2).
[C/G] Yes the last thing i [G]gave her was the [C/G]bird
