[Verse 1]
D#
I kept the bottle we drank from together
D#
I don't know, is that insane?
G# D#
It's just every once in a while you've
A#
Got to remind yourself
A#
That it's you against the rain
A# D#
And I'm not sure yet who will win
D#
If there's a heaven and if there's a hell
D#
I'm sure that we'll wind up there together
G#
And dine there as well
D#
In the eyes of the other
A#
Breaking bread over anecdotes
A#
Of what, I don't know
D#
But something funny, I'm sure
[Chorus]
Cm A#
And bird, if I held you too tight
G# D# D#
Bird, if you were warm through the night
A#
I will let go
G#
As wide as the storm that does brew
A# G#
I will let go of you
G# A# D# D#
I will let go of you
[Verse 2]
D#
Some days are harder than other days
D#
As I wait like strings to be plucked
G# D#
To the tune of a song you sang to me one day
A# A#7 D#
Rikki-Tikki-Tavi
[Chorus]
Cm Gm A# A#
And bird, if your wings have gone clipped
G# D# D#
As I pressed myself to your lips
A#
I'll release you
A#7 G#
With what is left of your wings
A# G#
I will leave you to sing
A# D# D#
I will leave you to sing
[Instrumental]

Cm A# A#
And bird, if love went awry
G# Fm D# D#
Each time I looked too deep in your eyes
A# A#7 G#
I'll look away so that you can fly away
A# G#
I'll even lead you astray
A# G#
I will lead you astray
A# G#
I will lead you astray
[Outro]
A# G#
I will lead you (astray)
A# G#
(Lead you astray)
A# G#
(Lead you astray)
A# G#
(Lead you astray)
A# G#
(Lead you astray)
