Flightless Bird, American Mouth Tabulatur von Iron And Wine

Verse 1:

         C
I was a quick-wit boy,

            Am
diving too deep for coins
            F
All of your street light eyes 

          G
wide on my plastic toys

             C
Then when the cops closed the fair, 

          Am
I cut my long baby hair

           F
Stole me a dog-eared map 
                  G
and called for you everywhere


Chorus:

        C
Have I found you
           Am     F        G
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping 

C
or lost you, 
Am
american mouth

F         G
Big pill looming


Verse 2:

           C
Now I'm a fat house cat

            Am
Nursing my sore blunt tongue

             F
Watching the warm poison rats

                  G
 curl through the wide fence cracks

           C
Pissing on magazine photos

      Am                          F
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold
And clean 
               G
blood of Christ mountain stream


Chorus:

C
Have I found you

Am               F          G
Flightless bird, grounded, bleeding

C
 or lost you, 

Am
american mouth

F         G
Big pill stuck going down
