Eliza Gilkyson - Rare Bird


CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO: G+G E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD

G+G           E minorEm
Rare bird, I know your loneliness
      A minorAm           D MajorD
Born into a crowded nest and given away
  G+G                  E minorEm
Solitaire girl, your voice crying in the wilderness
            A minorAm                 D MajorD
Where suffering brings holiness, at least that's what they say
A minorAm             E minorEm   D MajorD
Rare bird, I wish you good company

G+G           E minorEm
Rare bird I know your sorrow
         A minorAm            D MajorD
It rings a little hollow with every passing day
     G+G                E minorEm
It's not fair girl, they want a piece of all of you
          A minorAm                 D MajorD
To form a line and follow you with every word that you say
A minorAm          E minorEm    D MajorD
Rare bird, I wish you sanctuary


     A minorAm
With your razor-wire and pitfalls

My way of climbing walls
                   E minorEm
And finding where the china dolls are hidden
A minorAm
Words can be misunderstood

My intentions were all good
                 D MajorD
There's nothing here not worth forgiving


INSTRUMENTAL: G+G  E minorEm  A minorAm  D MajorD  A minorAm  E minorEm D MajorD


  A minorAm
I'm not the kind to hover near

Or stand in line to catch your ear
                 E minorEm
But I just want to get things clear between us
 A minorAm
I know how to disappear

And leave by the backdoor dear
             D MajorD
Make sure that no one here has seen us

G+G              E minorEm
Rare bird, I don't want you to go down
      A minorAm                     D MajorD
Here on the poor side of town, there's nothing left to say
     G+G               E minorEm
Just this prayer girl, we'll go on from here unbound
       A minorAm            D MajorD
Meet again on higher ground, some uncloudy day
A minorAm            E minorEm       D MajorD
Rare bird, just a little prayer from me


OUTRO:  (## repeat and fade to end ##)
A minorAm     E minorEm D MajorD
Rare bird
A minorAm     E minorEm D MajorD
Rare bird
A minorAm     E minorEm D MajorD
Rare bird
A minorAm     E minorEm D MajorD
Rare bird
