[Verse 1]
Csus2 Am/E Gsus4/D
I couldn't utter my love when it counted
Gsus4/D Am/E Csus2
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now
Csus2 Am/E Gsus4/D
And I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted
Gsus4/D Am/E Csus2
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now
[Chorus]
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E F6sus2
Words hung a-bove, but never would form,
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E Dm7/A
Like a cry at the final breath that is drawn.
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E F6sus2
Re- member me, love, when I'm re- born,
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E Csus2
As a shrike to your sharp and glo- ri- ous thorn
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Csus2 Am/E Gsus4/D
Had no idea on what ground I was founded
Gsus4/D Am/E Csus2
All of that goodness is gone with you now
Csus2 Am/E Gsus4/D
Then when I met you my virtues un- counted
Gsus4/D Am/E Csus2
All of my goodness is gone with you now
[Chorus 2]
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E F6sus2
Dragging along, following your form
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E Dm7/A
Hung like the pelt of some prey you had worn.
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E F6sus2
Re - member me love, when I'm re- born,
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E Csus2
As a shrike to your sharp and glo- ri -ous thorn
[Instrumental]

Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E Csus2
[Verse 3]
Csus2 Am/E Gsus4/D
I fled to the city with so much dis-counted
Gsus4/D Am/E Csus2
Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
Csus2 Am/E Gsus4/D
Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted
Gsus4/D Am/E Csus2
Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
[Chorus 3]
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E F6sus2
I was housed by your warmth, thus trans- formed
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E Dm7/A
By your grounded and giving and darkening scorn
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E F6sus2
Re - member me, love, when I'm re- born,
Am/E Gsus4/D Am/E Csus2
As a shrike to your sharp and glo ri-ous thorn
[Instrumental]
