(verse 1)

Csus2       Abmaj7      Ebsus2 G
     Filthy bird laying in our yard,

     Csus2         Abmaj7       Ebsus2  G
     four chambered heart never beat so hard.

     Csus2    Abmaj7  Ebsus2   G
     Dad said she was almost gone,

     Csus2  Abmaj7   Ebsus2    G
     upside down out on our lawn.

     And I could hold her in a shoe box,
     if she healed she could be mine.
     And if I cannot save her spirit,
     Dad says I should break her spine.

     Csus2               Ebsus2
     Shaking, brilliant, silver-black wings,

     Abm                Bbm
     Jesus Christ, what prayers these tears sing.


(chorus)

     Csus2                Ebsus2              Abm
     Wear your hearts out on your sleeves for

                Bbm
     starlings... starlings.

     Csus2           D3sus2
     Of the least of all of these

         Abm        Bbm
     are  starlings... starlings.


(verse 2)

     Two years pass, I pump the chamber,
     full of air to shoot the birds.
     Harmless game to hit them slightly,
     to scare them off, in other words.
     Slarling falling to her death,
     pircing copper steals her breath.
     See the flutter in her breast,
     starving babies in her nest.

     Raise their souls up to the sky,
     why must helpless creatures die?

(chorus)

(bridge)

     Csus2            Ebsus2
     Every breath has sacred weight,

   Abm                   Bbm
     every life has some design.

     Csus2             Ebsus2
     Can we kill and also save,

     Abm                  Bbm
     speak of life, while digging graves?

     Raise their souls up to the sky,
     why must helpless creatures die?

(chorus)
