A D F#m E D
A D F#m E D
D A E Bm
It ain't hard to get lost When you forget Where you come from
/C# D A
Turn that dial to the right Push that pedal down
E D A E
Don't say goodbye Just for a drive Along for the ride
A E F#m
It'd be real nice just to fly away And escape everything
D A
But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing
E F#m
Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak
D E A D F#m E D
But it sure won't make me believe
D A
It's hell you say and it gets worse you know
E Bm
How many more days am I gonna wake up when there's no place I wanna go?
/C# D A
If that sunshine's really gonna kill us all why is every day so cold?
E D A E
Why is everything so fucking cold? It never melts away
A E F#m
It'd be real nice just to fly away And escape everything
D A
But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing
E F#m
Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak
D E Bm
But it sure won't make me believe
D A Bm
That's the top of your lungs and the bottom of your heart
D A Bm
It's at the top of your lungs It's at the bottom of your heart
C#m D Bm A E A (palm muted)
It's at as deep as your heart goes
A E F#m
I understand the things that keep you up And I know that you still feel
D A
And I know your heart is hemorrhaging You need some time to heal
E F#m
And now the traffic lights there on your street flash yellow all the time
D C#m
And the mirror in the bathroom It looks cracked in the wrong light
D
But walk out through your threshold
A E D
Through your lungs and move on down the stairs
F#m E A D Bm E
And let the things you love come back to you in time we'll all get there
A E F#m
It'd be real nice just to fly away And escape everything
D A
But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing
E F#m
Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak
D E A
But it sure won't make me believe
