Birds

	  		
 

     G                   Dm 
All of these birds, all of these birds in my head 
         C 
Swarming around, pecking to keep me up and i can't come down 
G                             Dm 
All of these words building a house in my head 
             C                                                  Bm 
Tearing it down, the wreckage is keeping me up and i can't come down 
  
Verse 1:

Am                C 
The carnage of the cardinals they haunt me 
Em                D 
The buzzing of the hummingbirds ignite me 
Am              C 
The ravens got a carnival that's rocking 
   Em            D 
me wide awake like there's nothing at stake 
Am               C 
'Cause i was born as perfect as the skies are 
Em                      D 
head latched open to the skylark 
          Am                Db                 Em 
But now my brain's a prision for the flight, oh get out of my head 
               D 
Get out of my head 
                 C  Am  Em  D 
Get out of my head 
  



G                               Dm 
All of these birds, all of these birds in my head 
         C 
Swarming around, pecking to keep me up and i can't come down 
G                             Dm 
All of these words building a house in my head 
             C                                                  Bm 
Tearing it down, the wreckage is keeping me up and i can't come down 

  
Verse 2:

Am               C 
The murmur of the starling song is maddening 
Em                      D 
The murder of the crowns is coming at me 
Am                 C 
The ticking of the clock is trying to mock me 
Em                 D 
I'm wide awake like there's nothing at stake 
Am                  C 
Cause I am still the architect of this cage 
Em               D 
and I set all the raptors on a rampage 
Am                           C                     Em 
Begging for a rapture, for an escape, get out of my head 
               D 
Get out of my head 
                 C  Am  Em  D 
Get out of my head 
                C  Am  D 
Get out of my head 
  


Em        D                   C 
I feel the madness wrapping me up here 
Am        D                     Em 
Sun in my eyes, it's a beautiful sun 
Em        D                   C 
I feel the madness wrapping me up here 
Am                               D 
Open the latch, let me into the light 
  



G                               Dm 
All of these birds, all of these birds in my head 
         C 
Swarming around, pecking to keep me up and i can't come down 
G                             Dm 
All of these words building a house in my head 
             C 
Tearing it down, the wreckage is keeping me up and i can't come down
