INTRO:

[D] [Edim/D] [D] [Edim/D] [D] [Edim/D] [D]
Verse 1:
[D]Your heart sings like a [E]kettle
And your wo[B]rds, they boil away like [D]steam.
And a l[D]ie burns long while the tr[E]uth bites quick,
A h[B]eart is built for both i[D]t seems.
You are lonely as a ch[E]urch,
Despite the qu[B]euing out your door.[D]
I am empty as a p[E]romise, no m[B]ore.[D][D9]

Chorus:
[D] [A7]When the t[G]ime comes,
[D] And [A7]rights have been [G]read,[D]
I t[A7]hink of you o[G]ften
But for o[D]nce I m[A7]eant what I s[G]aid.

INTRO:

Verse 2:

I was salted by your hunger,
Now you've gone and lost your appetite
And a little bird is every bit as handy in a fight.
I am lonely as a memory
Despite the gathering round the fire.
Aren't you every bird on every wire?

Chorus 2:
[D] [A7]When the t[G]ime comes,
[D] And [A7]rights have been [G]read,[D]
I t[A7]hink of you o[G]ften
But for o[D]nce I m[A7]eant what I s[G]aid.
[D]Here I st[A7]ay, [G]I lay me d[D]own,
I'm d[A7]ug from the r[G]ubble, [D] and c[A7]ut from the k[G]ill.
[D]Here I st[A7]ay, [G]I lay me d[D]own,
In a h[A7]ouse by the H[G]ill.
[D] I'm d[A7]ug from the r[G]ubble, [D] and c[A7]ut from the k[G]ill.
