Chords with lyrics
[Capo 5]
Bird on a Leash is a great song off of Horse Feather's 2012 album Cynic's New Year.
A minorAm FF
As crass as your mother, keen to the chance,
C majorC G+G
You would live by the seat of your pants,
A minorAm FF
And you were taught you should have all things you can take,
C majorC G+G
It's getting caught that makes you a thief.
A minorAm
By the skin of your teeth.
A minorAm FF C majorC G+G x 2
FF C majorC
It's true you were running for cover,
G+G A minorAm
The worst of the worst was not done,
FF C majorC
You can't find comfort in any other,
G+G A minorAm
Set in your ways like the sun.
A minorAm FF
Not one tune had changed like scattered leaves,
C majorC G+G
All her clothes strung out on the eves.
A minorAm FF
There's a reckoning that's coming to make something right,
C majorC G+G
There's a man here who's picking a fight,
A minorAm FF C majorC
It's on like a light.
G+G A minorAm
No future or history too bright.
A minorAm FF C majorC G+G
FF C majorC
It's true you were running for cover,
G+G A minorAm
The worst of the worst was not done,
FF C majorC
You can't find comfort in any other,
G+G A minorAm
Set in your ways like the sun.
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm
Shee----ee's worrying me,
FF C majorC
A augmentedA bird on some leash,
G+G A minorAm
Flying nowhere but dying to be.
A minorAm FF C majorC G+G x 2
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm x 2
FF C majorC
A augmentedA bird on some leash,
G+G A minorAm
Flying nowhere but dying to be.
FF C majorC
Caught by some pride,
G+G A minorAm
Only virtue will get you untied.
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm
FF C majorC
A augmentedA bird on some leash,
G+G A minorAm
Flying nowhere but dying to be.
