[Verse 1]
A F#m (A)
I couldn't utter my love when it counted
E Bm A
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now
A F#m (A)
And I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted
E Bm A
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now
[Chorus 1]
A F#m
Bites on above
E A
But never would form
F#m E Bm A
Like a cry at the final breath that is drawn
A F#m E A
Remember me love, when I'm reborn
F#m E Bm A
As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
[Verse 2]
A F#m (A)
Had no idea on what ground I was founded
E Bm A
All of that goodness is going with you now
A F#m (A)
Then when I met you my virtues uncounted
E Bm A
All of my goodness is going with you now
[Chorus 2]
A F#m E A
Driving along, fall on your thorn
F#m E Bm A
Hung like the pelt of some prey you had worn
A F#m E A
Remember me love, when I'm reborn
F#m E Bm A
As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
[Verse 3]
A F#m (A)
I fled to the city with so much discounted
E Bm A
Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
A F#m (A)
Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted
E Bm A
Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
[Chorus 3]
A F#m
I was hatched by your warmth
E A
Thus transformed
F#m E Bm A
By your grounded and giving and darkening scorn
A F#m E A
Remember me love, when I'm reborn
F#m E Bm A
As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
