Birds The Veils
<i></i>Capo on 4th
[Am]
T[Am]hrough the charred black [Em]winter trees
I h[Dm]ear their voices[Am] sing to me.
F[Am]earsome black birds [Em]crying high,
But[Dm] there'll be no warning[Am] when I die.
S[Am]ome lonesome sparrow[Em] saying don't you know
th[Dm]at you're gone forever [Am]when you go
O[G]h, and i hear them [Am]calling
Through my [G]window every [Am]morning
Your [G]life dear boy means [Am]nothing
Sa[Em]y the birds,[E] The birds, the birds
[Am]
T[Am]hen by the willow[Em] I did see
A [Dm]swarm of buzzing[Am] honey bees
"[Am]Good morning honey[Em] bees" I cried
But[Dm] to me they offered[Am] no reply
A[Am]nd that fearsome black bird[Em] answered instead
"Boy [Dm]there's now a price put[Am] on your head"
Oh[G], and I hear 'em them [Am]calling
[G] [Am]
"Your l[G]ife, dear boy, means [Am]nothing"
Say[Em] the birds,[E] the birds, the birds.
[Am]
[Em]No use hid[G]ing in the [Am]water.
[Em]No use hid[G]ing in the [Am]square.
[Em]Know those eyes are [G]looking for yo[Am]u every[Em]where.
W[Am]ell you'll be glad my[Em] love to hear,
O[Dm]ne morning they did al[Am]l disappear.
Tir[Am]ed of all the[Em] summer rain,
th[Dm]ey made their nest in[Am]side my brain.
Bu[Am]t don't worry darling, [Em]pay it no mind
tr[Dm]ue friends like these are[Am] hard to find.
No[G]w I no longer hear 'em [Am]calling
[G] [Am]
And my lif[G]e, at last means [Am]something
S[Em]ay the birds,[E] the birds, the birds.
[Am]
