Andrew Bird – Greenwine (Guitar)

      Em         G     D
I had nothing to say on Christmas day

         C              Am7            B7
When you threw all your clothes in the snow

         Em         G             D
When you burnt your hair, and you knocked over chairs

       C             B7          Em
I just tried to stay out of your way

             G                 D
But when you fell asleep, With blood on your teeth,

       C         Am7            B7
I just got in my car and drove away

          G         D
Listen to me, butterfly

                 C    B7      Em
You know there's only so much wine

             C            G
That you can drink in one life

            C        B7
But it will never be enough

            Am
To save you from

    B7             Em
The bottom of your glass

          Em            G      D
Where the state highway starts, I stopped my car

      C      Am7             B7
I get out to stare up at the stars

       Em      G
And as meteors died

    D
And shot across the sky

       C                  B7          Em
I just thought about your sad shining eyes

            G                                 D
But when I went back for my clothes, when the sun finally rose

        C              Am7                B7
Oh, and you were still passed out on the floor

          G         D
Listen to me, butterfly, no

                 C    B7      Em
You know there's only so much wine

             C            G
That you can drink in one life

            D        B7
But it will never be enough

            Am
To save you from

    B7             Em
The bottom of your glass
