[Intro]
D
D A D A G
 
[Verse 1]
D A D A GSorry that I'm scared of thunder like a dog
DI know that you love rain
A D A GBut I cry when something shakes the walls
DTail between my legs
A D AI scratch while you relax
G DRuffling feathers watching storm clouds pass
D A D A GHoping I'll make you hate the thunder too
D A D A GDigging in my claws to make you hate me too
A
 
[Chorus]
G BmI can't stand you in my bed
AYou're too gentle I need you to
G Bm Ahurt me back instead
GI wish I could take you back to California
Bm AWhere you'd never heard of creatures like me
GLittle bird won't you fly away
GLittle bird won't you fly away
 
D A D A G (x2)
 
[Verse 2]
D A D A GAnd sorry that I roll over to my folks
DIt's not that I'm ashamed
A D A GBut they keep me on the leash to choke
DI'm a hunting breed
A D AAnd bird is all they eat
G DIf they sniff you out, they gnash their teeth
D A D A GI'm a coward scared of living outside
D A D A GEven if it means I crush you at my side
A
 
[Chorus]
G BmI can't stand you in my bed
AYou're too gentle
G BmAI need you to hurt me back instead
GI wish I could take you back to California
Bm AWhere you'd never heard of creatures like me
GLittle bird won't you fly away
GLittle bird won't you fly away
 
[Bridge]
Bm BmWhen the bell rings
N.C.
My mouth waters
A AI'm a habit
N.C.
That won't alter
GI'm an instinct
Don't you fear me?
GHunting songbirds in my sleep
 
[Outro]
D A D A GSorry that I don't treat you like I should
DI only lick my wounds
A DTeeth bared, and snap
A G"You're all that's good"
DIf I chase you away
A D AI'm back to chasing tail
G DRunning circles after what was real
D A D A GAnd maybe one day I'll catch it and I'll cry
D A D A GWishing that little songbird was still mine
