D 
Pretty wings, you're the prettiest thing 
            C 
You're like Parker Posey in a magazine 
     G                                  Am7 
With faded jeans and a crop top back in '93 
  
D 
I wanna be your dressed-in-black 
     C 
Your dark star with a backwards hat 
          G                                       Am7 
I'm gonna write a book and put your name on every page 
      C 
Every page 
  
 
  
C                 G 
Hey pretty little mockingbird 
D                 Em   D 
Keep singin' them sad, sad songs 
C               G 
There's already rain on my window 
    D              Em      D 
I'm dyin' when the morning comes 
C                G 
Flew away in the night with the raven 
D                      Em      D 
Now I'm underneath the willows hangin' 
C              G                D 
I'm too strung out to be upside down 
C             D                      Am7 
Pretty little mockingbird, sing me a song 
  

  
D 
I was the desert, honey, you were the sand 
        C 
I was a bird, baby, you were the branch 
      G                                            Am7 
And I flew into the blue and watched those flowers dyin' 
  
D 
It wasn't much, just everything 
             C 
You could've sat right there and got high with me 
        G                                         Am7 
But you fell asleep and your dreamin' brought the nightmares 
            C 
Brought the nightmares

    D              Em      D 
I'm dyin' when the morning comes 
C                G 
Flew away in the night with the raven 
D                      Em      D 
Now I'm underneath the willows hangin' 
C              G                D
