Midnight Oil
Knife's Edge
Bird Noises

Intro:

D F D A (x4)

Verse 1:

     D                C#
On a knife edge razor day
       D                              Bb
If you listen long enough they've got nothing to say
       D                     C#
It's a time warp place don't change
     D                       Bb
The rhythm of the night, the beating rain

Bridge 1:
          E          D           A         
You move fast to get off of that merry-go-round

Verse 2:

D                         C#
There's one gun, probably more
        D                      Bb
And the others are pointing at our backdoor
       D             C#
At the best hotel of all
       D                        Bb
Put my name on the wall, put my bed on the floor

Bridge 2:
          E       D       A         
You get much less well it seems like more
E             A
Heart's still sore

Chorus:
A            C            C#             B                
Word crimes  Bitter lies  Bitter crimes  Government Lies  (x2)
