[Verse 1]
C Fmaj7 C G I couldn't utter my love when it counted G C Fmaj7 C Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now C Fmaj7 C G And I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted G C Fmaj7 C Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now
[Chorus 1]
Fmaj7 G Bites on above C Fmaj7 But never would form C Fmaj7 C G Like a cry at the final breath that is drawn Fmaj7 G C Fmaj7 Remember me love, when I'm reborn C Fmaj7 G C As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
[Verse 2]
C Fmaj7 C G Had no idea on what ground I was founded G C Fmaj7 C All of that goodness is going with you now C Fmaj7 C G Then when I met you my virtues uncounted G C Fmaj7 C All of my goodness is going with you now
[Chorus 2]
Fmaj7 G C F Driving along, fall on your thorn C Fmaj7 C G Hung like the pelt of some prey you had worn Fmaj7 G C Fmaj7 Remember me love, when I'm reborn C Fmaj7 G C As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
[Verse 3]
C Fmaj7 C G I fled to the city with so much discounted G C Fmaj7 C Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now C Fmaj7 C G Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted G C Fmaj7 C Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
[Chorus 3]
Fmaj7 G I was hatched by your warmth C Fmaj7 Thus transformed C Fmaj7 C G By your grounded and giving and darkening scorn Fmaj7 G C Fmaj7 Remember me love, when I'm reborn C Fmaj7 G C As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
