[Intro]
C C Dm Dm F F C C
C C Dm Dm G G C C

[Verse 1]
C C Dm Dm
I couldn't utter my love when it counted
F F C C
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now
Dm Dm
And I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted
F F C C
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now

[Chorus 1]
Am Am G G
Bites on above
C C F F
But never would form
Am Am G G C C Am Am
Like a cry at the final breath that is drawn
Am Am G G C C Fmaj7 Fmaj7
Remember me love, when I'm reborn
Am Am G G C C
As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn

Dm Dm Am Am G G C C

[Verse 2]
C C Dm Dm
Had no idea on what ground I was founded
F F C C
All of that goodness is going with you now
C C Dm Dm
Then when I met you my virtues uncounted
F F C C
All of my goodness is going with you now

[Chorus 2]
Am Am G G C C F F
Driving along, fall on your thorn
Am Am G G C C Am Am
Hung like the pelt of some prey you had worn
Am Am G G C C Fmaj7 Fmaj7
Remember me love, when I'm reborn
Am Am G G C C
As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn

[Instrumental Interlude]

C C Dm Dm F F C C
C C Dm Dm G G C C

[Verse 3]
C C Dm Dm
I fled to the city with so much discounted
F F C C
Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
C C Dm Dm
Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted
F F C C
Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now

[Chorus 3]
Am Am G G
I was hatched by your warmth
C C F F
Thus transformed
Am Am G G C C Am Am
By your grounded and giving and darkening scorn
Am Am G G C C Fmaj7 Fmaj7
Remember me love, when I'm reborn
Am Am G G C C
As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
