[Verse 1]
 
C   Dm/F          Asus2 Em
Two birds on a wire
F            G    F/A
One tries to fly away
        G/B
And the other
C           Dm/F
Watches him close
          Asus2 Em
From that wire
           F           G
He says he wants to as well
    F/A     G/B
But he is a liar
 
 
[Hook]
 
C               G  C
I'll believe it all
        Am        F          G
There's nothing I won't understand
C               G   C
I'll believe it all
  Am        F          G
I won't let go of your hand
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
C   Dm/F       Asus2 Em
Two birds on a wire
F              G
One says "Come on"
        F/A
And the other says
     G/B
"I'm tired"
    C           Dm/F
The sky is overcast
        Asus2 Em
And I'm sorry
    F           G
One more or one less
F/A      G/B
Nobody's worried
 
 
[Hook]
 
C               G   C
I'll believe it all
        Am        F          G
There's nothing I won't understand
C               G   C
I'll believe it all
  Am        F          G      G7   G9
I won't let go of your hand
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
C   Dm/F        Asus2 Em
Two birds of a feather
F                G
Say that they're always
F/A          G/B
Gonna stay together
    C          Dm/F
But one's never goin' to
    Asus2       Em
Let go of that wire
   F             G
He says that he will
    F/A         G/B
But he's just a liar
 
 
[Verse 4]
 
C   E7         Am   E7
Two birds on a wire
F            G    F/A
One tries to fly away

C           E7
Watches him close
          Am   E7
From that wire
           C           E7
He says he wants to as well
    Am      E7
But he is a liar
