Dadd11 (554030) //just C slid up two frets, very easy to play The G/D chord isn't necessary, you can just play G instead [Intro] Em C G D [Verse 1]
Em                     C
If we take this bird in with its broken leg

G                          D
We could nurse it, she said

Em                       C
Come inside for a little lie down with me

G                                          D
And if you fall asleep, it wouldn't be the worst thing

           C                                G         D
But when I wake up and your makeup is on my shoulder

                 C
And tell me if I lie down, would you stay now?

       G/D      D    B7
Let me hold ya, oh
[Chorus]
         Em                             C
But if I kiss you, will your mouth read this truth?

               G                                          D
Darling, how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do

                Em                         C
And it's not complete yet, mustn't get our feet wet

                     G                           D
'Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon

         C                Dadd11          Em     C
And I'll owe it all to you, oh, my little bird

          G     D
My little bird
[Verse 2]
Em                   C
If we take a walk out in the morning dew

G                               D
We can lay down, so I'm next to you

Em                       C
Come inside for a little homemade tea

G                                              D
And if you fall asleep, then, at least, you're next to me

         C                                               G       D
And if I wake up, you say, "It's late, love, get back to sleep"

               C
I'm covered by nature and I'm safe now

                G/D                 D       B7
Underneath this oak tree with you beside me
[Chorus]
         Em                             C
But if I kiss you, will your mouth read this truth?

               G                                          D
Darling, how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do

                Em                         C
And it's not complete yet, mustn't get our feet wet

                     G                           D
'Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon

         C                    Dadd11      C     Dadd11
And I'll owe it all to you, oh, my little bird

          Em     G
My little bird

My little bird

My little bird
[Bridge]
       C                   Dadd11        C                   Dadd11
And of all these things I'm sure of, I'm not quite certain of your love

    C                          Dadd11
You make me scream and then, I made you cry

       C                              Dadd11
When I left that little bird with its broken leg to die
[Chorus]
         Em                             C
But if I kiss you, will your mouth read this truth?

               G                                          D
Darling, how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do

                Em                         C
And it's not complete yet, mustn't get our feet wet

                     G                           D
'Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon

         C                  Dadd11         Em     C
But I'll owe it all to you, oh, my little bird

          G                         D
My little bird, whoa oh oh oh whoa

          Em     C
My little bird

          G      D
My little bird
You're my little bird
