Old 97's

Bird in a cage

C

Left you last night on the left coast

G

Writin' you a letter right now

C F

The things that you do render in you

G C

Somethin' I can't live without

C

Maybe maybe I've got a pulse now

G

Maybe my heart's on fire

C F

But a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage

G C

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire

F

Yeah a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage

G C

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire

C

Left you last night on the left half

G

The land of the free to be burned

C F

Well the heat of your touch is makin' it such

G C

And I've forgotten everything I've learned

C

Maybe maybe I've got a problem

G

Maybe my heart's a liar

C F

But a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage

G C

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire

F

Yeah a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage

G C

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire

Am F C G

And I may be a bird in a cage

Am F C G

But it least it's your cage

Am F C G

And I may be a bird in a cage

Am F C G

But it least it's your cage

C

Left you last night on the left half

G

Of the bed, the half that used to be mine

C F

Well the way that you sleep is the image I keep

G C

Always on the edge of my mind

C

Maybe maybe I got a reason

G

For livin' even though I'm so tired

C F

But a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage

G C

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire

F

Yeah a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage

G C

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire

Am F C G

And I may be a bird in a cage

Am F C G

But it least it's your cage

Am F C G

And I may be a bird in a cage

Am F C G

But it least it's your cage

C

Maybe maybe you are the only

G

one my heart's desired

C F

But a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage

G C

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire

F

Yeah a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage

G C

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire

F

Yeah a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage

G C

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire
