Talking Bird Ukulele chords by Death Cab For Cutie

Hello everyone. I saw there is a great ukulele chord guide for this song, but I have added some slight
modifications to better suit the song. Almost all the chords here are modified.

I've played through several times with these and don't worry, they will all make sense


//Verse 1\\

C      Em      F   F3
Oh, my talking bird

           C   Gmod    F
Though you know so few words

           C   Em   F     F3
They're on infinite repeat

           C               Gmod         F
Like your brain can't keep up with your beak.

           C          Em   F    F3
And you're kept in an open cage

          C       Gmod     F
So you're free to leave or stay.

     C         Em        F        F3
Sometimes this makes you confused

               C              Gmod           F
But there's no hint that I am trying to give you.

//Chorus\\

    Dm                    G                       C
The longer you think, the less you know what to do.

C-Em-F-F3
C-Gmod-F

//Verse 2\\

     C       Em           F     F3
It's hard to see your way out

         C        Gmod        F
When you live in a house in a house

          C     Em   F     F3
Cause you don't realize

         C            Gmod           F
That the windows were open the whole time.

    C      Em      F     F3
But oh, my talking bird

            C            Gmod         F
Though your feathers are tattered and furled

      C       Em       F     F3
I'll love you all your days

         C                  Gmod      F
Till the breath leaves your fragile frame.


//Chorus 2\\

     Dm                  G                      Am     G      F
It's all here for you as long as your choose to stay.

     Dm                  G                       C (regular C chord)
It's all here for you as long as you don't fly away.



That's it! Listen to the song to get strumming and small note changes.
