[Chorus]
   G         G7             C
We live in a world we can't understand

G    D     C               D
Poor blind birds, if we're anything

G       G7            C
And the world is not what it seems

G  D          G
To poor blind birds
[Verse 1]
G       G7             C
We were laughed out of eden (so they say)

G      D          C      D
In the wake of our first mistake

G          G7            C
And no one knew where the road was leading

G            D    C            D
We spent our days running from maze to maze
[Chorus]
   G         G7             C
We live in a world we can't understand, ooh-ooh-ooh

G    D     C              D
Poor blind birds, if we're anything

G       G7           C
And the world is not what it seems, ooh-ooh,ooh

G   D         G
To poor blind birds
[Verse 2]
G             G7          C
Since you been dead these seven years

G            D         C                    D
I've seen you twice in a glass of red brandy and ice

G      G7              C
As the sky filled with gold and spears

G          D      C        D
And hung a wreath in the house of grief
[Chorus]
   G         G7             C
We live in a world we can't understand, ooh-ooh-ooh

G    D     C              D
Poor blind birds, if we're anything

G       G7       C
And the end is not the end, ooh-ooh-ooh

G    D      G
For poor blind birds
[Verse 3]
G       G7            C
So I'm leaving on the bus tonight

G           D    C       D
Through the snow of shanando-ah

G      G7     C
In this long dream of life

G             D    C           D
It's a lonely road that leads us home
[Chorus]
   G         G7             C
We live in a world we can't understand, ooh-ooh-ooh

G    D     C              D
Poor blind birds, if we're anything

G       G7           C
And the world is not what it seems, ooh-ooh-ooh

G   D      G
To poor blind birds

   G         G7             C
We live in a world we can't understand, ooh-ooh-ooh

G    D     C              D
Poor blind birds, if we're anything

G       G7       C
And the end is not the end, ooh-ooh-ooh

G    D      G
For poor blind birds
[Outro] G G7 C G D C D
