Bird Song Tab par Florence And The Machine

[verse] 
 
  F                     C
Well I didn't tell anyone, but a bird flew by
     E7                  Am
Saw what I'd done he set up a nest outside,
     F            C
And he sang about what I'd become
   E7            Am
He sang so loud, sang so clear
    F                C
I was afraid all the neighbors would hear,
      E7             Am
So I invited him in, just to reason with him
  F                C
I promised I wouldn't do it again

[chorus]

n.c.        F           
But he sang louder and louder inside the house,
C
And no I couldn't get him out
E7
So I trapped him under a cardboard box
Am
Stood on it to make him stop
F
I picked up the bird and above the din I said
C
That's the last song you'll ever sing
F              C
Held him down, broke his neck,
E7                  Am
Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget

[verse]

F         C      E7        Am
But in my dreams began to creep
F                 C
That old familiar tweet tweet tweet
E7                Am
I opened my mouth to scream and shout,
F                   C
I waved my arms and flapped about
E7                    Am
But I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout,
F                     Am
Couldn't scream and I couldn't shout
E7                   Am
I opened my mouth to scream and shout
F                 C
Waved my arms and flapped about
E7                      Am
But I couldn't scream I couldn't shout,
F                   C
The song was coming from my mouth
E7      Am
From my mouth
F       C
From my mouth
6x

E7      C
From my mouth
