A E A D
like a bird on the wire , like a drunk in a midnight choir
A E A D A
i have tried in my way to be free
A E A D
like a worm on a hook , like a knight from an old – fashioned book
A E A D A
i have saved all my ribbons for thee

D A
and if i , have been so unkind
Bm E
i hope that you just let it all go by
D A
and if i , have been so untrue ,
Bm E
i hope that you know it was all to you .

A E A D
like a baby stillborn , like a beast with his horn
A E A D A
i have torn everyone who reached out for me . .
A E A D
but i swear by this song and all that i have done wrong
A E A D A
i will make it all up to you .

guitar solo

D A
dont cry , dont cry , anymore .
Bm E
its over now baby . dont cry no more .
D A
dont cry , dont cry , anymore .
Bm E
its over now baby . dont cry no more .

A E A D
like a bird on the wire , like a drunk in a midnight choir
A E A
i have tried in my way to be free

go the distance . . .
