Made a bowerbird of me
                          D
My heart's a house I want to fit

With shiny things that bring you to the tree

Says a highway unriddled with lights, and maybe that's true

Before Adam's ribs were taught to make it
          G                              D      G
What was love to an acolyte: a word or a tune?

Pre-Chorus:
        Em                       G                      D
All the miles I've gone, and the road still wove in the darkness
           Em             G           D           C
But oh, my stubborn heart drove ahead regardless, regardless


Chorus:

The muscle has hardened to bone, kept me safe, kept me strong

A lesson I learned on the long road home, kept me safe all alone


Pre-Chorus:
      Em                  G                  D
Oh, I know that I've been hard and I've been artless
                  Em                    G            D           C
And you've stayed soft and you've stood still for me regardless, regardless

Made a bowerbird of me

My heart wants to be where your heart lives


Bridge:
Em7       G        D
Poured my glass of wine
        Em7        G        D    G
Looked around this heart of mine
D   Em        G                              D     G
Realized that all my walls were dressed like you

         G                                            D        G
'Til I'm down to the sum of my parts, then I build me again
             D
If how we're loved is how we're made, well
            G                                                 D        G   D
Then we are made from my head and your heart, not built but woven

        Em                 G                  D

            Em                G            D           C
But oh, the stubborn grace of being loved regardless, regardless


Chorus:

Made a bowerbird of me
                          D
My heart's a house I want to fit
          G
With shiny things that bring you to the tree
                                      D       G
My heart wants to be where your heart lives
                                      D       G
My heart wants to be where your heart lives
                                             D
My heart wants to be where your heart lives
