(verse 1)
Csus2 Abmaj7 Ebsus2 G
Filthy bird laying in our yard,
Csus2 Abmaj7 Ebsus2 G
four chambered heart never beat so hard.
Csus2 Abmaj7 Ebsus2 G
Dad said she was almost gone,
Csus2 Abmaj7 Ebsus2 G
upside down out on our lawn.
And I could hold her in a shoe box,
if she healed she could be mine.
And if I cannot save her spirit,
Dad says I should break her spine.
Csus2 Ebsus2
Shaking, brilliant, silver-black wings,
Abm Bbm
Jesus Christ, what prayers these tears sing.
(chorus)
Csus2 Ebsus2 Abm
Wear your hearts out on your sleeves for
Bbm
starlings... starlings.
Csus2 D3sus2
Of the least of all of these
Abm Bbm
are starlings... starlings.
(verse 2)
Two years pass, I pump the chamber,
full of air to shoot the birds.
Harmless game to hit them slightly,
to scare them off, in other words.
Slarling falling to her death,
pircing copper steals her breath.
See the flutter in her breast,
starving babies in her nest.
Raise their souls up to the sky,
why must helpless creatures die?
(chorus)
(bridge)
Csus2 Ebsus2
Every breath has sacred weight,
Abm Bbm
every life has some design.
Csus2 Ebsus2
Can we kill and also save,
Abm Bbm
speak of life, while digging graves?
Raise their souls up to the sky,
why must helpless creatures die?
(chorus)
