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 Outro: 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
