[Chorus]
B E B What are those things with big black wings? G#m E B Circling descending from up overhead B E B Lie to me tell me that they're only robins G#m E F#7 B Tell me that your love for me will never be dead
[Verse 1]
B E B Today all the rooms in our home feel like strangers G#m E B I wonder what makes me feel so out of place B E B Why have you suddenly emptied your closets? G#m F#7 B And why won't you look me in the face?
[Chorus]
B E B What are those things with big black wings? G#m E B Circling descending from up overhead B E B Lie to me tell me that they're only robins G#m E F#7 B Tell me that your love for me will never be dead
