Bird On A Wire Uke tab by Leonard Cohen (Baritone Chords)

verse 1

Like a [A]bird on the [E7]wire
Like a [A]drunk in a [A7]midnight [D]choir
I have [A]tried in my [E7]way to be [A]free [Asus4][A]
Like a [A]worm on a [E7]hook
Like a [A]knight from some [A7]old fashioned [D]book
I have [A]saved all my [E7]ribbons for [A]thee [Asus4][A]
[D]If I if I have been un[A]kind
I [Bm]hope that you can just let it go [A]by
[D]If I if I have been un[A]true
I [Bm]hope you know it was never to [E]you [Esus4][E][E7]

verse 2

Like a [A]baby still[E7]born
Like a [A]beast [A7]with his [D]horn
I have [A]torn every[E7]one who reached [A]out for me [Asus4][A]
But I [A]swear by this [E7]song
And by [A]all that [A7]I have done [D]wrong
I will [A]make it [E7]all up to [A]thee [Asus4][A]
[D]I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden [A]crutch
[Bm]He said to me you must not ask for so [A]much [Asus4][A]
[D]And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened [A]door
[Bm]She cried to me hey why not ask for [E]more [Esus4][E][E7]

ending

Like a [A]bird on the [E7]wire
Like a [A]drunk in a [A7]midnight [D]choir
I have [A]tried in my [E7]way to be [D]free [A]
