C#m G#m
Through the charred black winter trees
F#m C#m
I hear their voices sing to me.
C#m G#m
Fearsome black birds crying high,
F#m C#m
But there'll be no warning when I die.
C#m G#m
Some lonesome sparrow saying don't you know
F#m C#m
that you're gone forever when you go

B C#m
Oh, and i hear them calling
B C#m
Through my window every morning
B C#m
Your life dear boy means nothing
G#m G#
Say the birds, The birds, the birds

[interlude]
C#m

C#m G#m
Then by the willow I did see
F#m C#m
A swarm of buzzing honey bees
C#m G#m
"Good morning honey bees" I cried
F#m C#m
But to me they offered no reply
C#m G#m
And that fearsome black bird answered instead
F#m C#m
"Boy there's now a price put on your head"

B C#m
Oh, and I hear 'em them calling
B C#m
From my window every morning
B C#m
"Your life, dear boy, means nothing"
G#m G#
Say the birds, the birds, the birds.

[interlude]
C#m

G#m B C#m
No use hiding in the water.
G#m B C#m
No use hiding in the square.
G#m B C#m G#m
Know those eyes are looking for you everywhere.

C#m G#m
Well you'll be glad my love to hear,
F#m C#m
One morning they did all disappear.
C#m G#m
Tired of all the summer rain,
F#m C#m
they made their nest inside my brain.
C#m G#m
But don't worry darling, pay it no mind
F#m C#m
true friends like these are hard to find.

B C#m
Now I no longer hear 'em calling
B C#m
From my window every morning
B C#m
And my life, at last means something
G#m G#
Say the birds, the birds, the birds.

[interlude]
C#m
