(Accapella)

Well I didn't tell anyone but a bird flew by.
Saw what I'd done. He set up a nest out side,
and he sang about what I'd become.

F F C C
He sang so loud, sang so clear.
E E Am Am
I was afraid all the neighbors would hear,
F F C C
So I invited him in, just to reason with him.
E E Am Am
I promised I wouldn't do it again.

F F
But he sang louder and louder inside the house,
C C
And no I couldn't get him out.
E E
So I trapped him under a cardboard box.
Am Am
and stood on it to make him stop.
F F
I picked up the bird and above the din I said
C C
"That's the last song you'll ever sing".
F F
Held him down, broke his neck,
C C
Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget.

E E Am Am

F F C C E E Am Am
But in my dreams began to creep
E E C C Am Am C C
that old familiar tweet tweet tweet

E E
I opened my mouth to scream and shout,
Am Am
I waved my arms and flapped about.
E E
But I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout,
Am Am
couldn't scream and I couldn't shout.

F F
I opened my mouth to scream and shout
Am Am
waved my arms and flapped about
E E
But I couldn't scream I couldn't shout,
Am Am F F C C
The song was coming from my mouth.
E E Am Am
From my mouth,
F F C C
From my mouth,
E E Am Am
From my mouth.

E E Am Am
From my mouth,
F F C C
From my mouth,
E E Am Am
From my mouth.

E E Am Am
From my mouth,
F F C C
From my mouth,
E E Am Am
From my mouth.
