Darling, my darling, I bow my leg like a cello
   Am        C           G
I perch on branches and bellow, 
       Am      C        G
while dreaming only of thee
Am             C     G
I'll give you everything

Darling, my darling, down in the dew-dropped rushes
Em         G           C
I beat my head in the darkness 
                         G
and build a fortress of tunnels

 C           G        Am            C            G
Darling, my darling, your snapping fangs don't scare me
      Am            C        G
I'll leap on your spine and love you 
          Am      C          G
till you gnaw me down to my wings
Am             C     G
I'll give you everything
Am             C     G
I'll give you everything

Oh my darling
