Intro: E
E F#m13
Little insect upside down and trying
E
To right-side up itself felt by my right foot tapping
F#m13
Squirming mechanism and it spins and tips vertical
E
But in my alien eye, I can see he is beautiful
Chorus 1:
A F#m13
Well I love my neighbor
E C#m
I love his determined behavior
A A/G# F#m13 E
If it were me I'd probably might have just stayed there
E F#m13
Mid-sized opossum in front of my house, dying
E
Collided with the vehicle driving it out through the lightning
F#m13
She falls down softly in the middle of the lane, incoming
E
And it's clearly incumbent on me to run out to her and do something
E F#m13
As I approach her there I'm suddenly squirming
E
And I'm scared and I'm trying to do right but I guess I desecrate everything
Chorus 2:
A F#m13
Well I love my neighbor
E C#m
I loved her courageous behavior
A A/G# F#m13 E
The rainout shines out of her mouth and it points back to nature
E F#m13
Morning gosling echoing wide around me
E
A "V" migrating down easy to better climate
F#m13
The startling shot rings out and now the geese are all screaming
E
And the marksman's adrenaline's up as he stands up smiling
Chorus 3:
A F#m13
Well I love my neighbor
E C#m
But don't understand his behavior
A A/G# F#m13 E
I love that bird but I don't ever want to take her
Outro:
E F#m13 E
