Chords
This is pretty much all correct. I am a little uncertain of the D chord in the verse. If
D doesn't work for you, try a B minor.
Intro: Em G D Em x2
Em G Feed the kittens in the kitchen D Em Set food out for the strays Em G Try hard to do your best D Em The magpie will have his way
Em G D Em x2
Em G Fill your mouth with berries D Em By the full light of the moon Em G Work all night if you have to D Em The magpie comes at noon

Em G Shore up the crucifixes D Em Above the archways and the doors Em G The magpie will come at midday D Em And you will go down on all fours

Em G And when the cherry's white with blossoms D Em Be ready and be brave Em G And remember what we had here D Em When there was something left to save
