[Verse]
D
Don't take your life 'cos your bicycle won't fly
F/D                 G/D
You may be going to heaven tonight
D
Don't spoil the show for the love of some albino
F/D                   G/D
You won't be going to heaven alone
D
I see her by the window
F/D           G/D
Waiting every night
D
So I wouldn't give a sh*t if your bicycle's in bits
F/D                  G/D
I think I'm going to heaven on it
(brief pause for little bass run here)
D
I see her by the window
F/D                 G/D
Pour the poison from you
D
I'll go there through the traffic
F/D           G/D
In my 16-hole boots
 
[Chorus]
         A    A/G         A/F#     A/E     G
And I'll siiiiiing to the birds here at my side
         A    A/G         A/F#     A/E    G       A7sus4   A7  A7sus2
And I'll siiiiiing to the birds that will save my life
 
(there's a lovely riff over the A7 variations, as follows:)

I see her by the window
F/D                 G/D
And I see there's a day

We'll walk out through the traffic
F/D           G/D
Pour the poison away
