Nightbirds chords by Grant-lee Phillips

Verse 1:
A            E    D    A
Feathers and furs nightbirds
D         A         E
Only come out after dark
A            E       D    A
Hear 'em all singin' nightbirds
D           A        E
Crying like no meadowlark

Verse 2:
A          E      D         A
Velvet and pearls mausoleum girls
D        A        E
Leathery jacketed boys
A        E           D          A
Out on a limb at the end of the bar
D                A         E
Shunned from the island of joy

Chorus:
G
Waiting for the silver moon to come
           A
And set ya free
G                                    A
Waiting for the silver door to swing wide
A
Like a jailbird's dream, dream

Verse 3:
A          E      D     A
Powder and gloves night doves
D         A         E
Only come out after hours
A          E              D            A
Thick with perfume by the light of the tomb
D          A       E
Fresh as a funeral flower

Chorus:
G                                              A
Waiting for the silver moon to come and set ya free
G                                    A
Waiting for the silver door to swing wide
A
Like a jailbird's dream

Hear 'em all singin' nightbirds
D           A        E
