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

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