Verse (a capella):

Well, I didn't tell anyone but a bird flew by

Saw what I'd done, he set up a nest outside

and he sang about what I'd become
 

   F             C
He sang so loud, sang so clear
E7                   Am
I was afraid all the neighbours would hear
     F                      C
so I invited him in just to reason with him
  E7                  Am
I promised I wouldn't do it again
 

            F
But he sang louder and louder inside the house
    C
and now I couldn't get him out
     E7
so I trapped him under a cardboard box
    Am
and stood on him to make it stop
  F
I picked up the bird and above the din I said
C (nc)
That's the last song you'll ever sing
F
Held him down, broke his neck
C
Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget
 
Interlude: E7  Am
 
    F       C       E7      Am
But in my dreams began to creep
     F       C     E
that old familiar tweet, tweet, tweet
 
Chorus:
  E7
I opened my mouth to scream and shout
  Am
I waved my arms and flapped about
      E7
but I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout
Am
Couldn't scream and I couldn't shout
  E7
I opened my mouth to scream and shout
Am
Waved my arms and flapped about
      E7
but I couldn't scream, I couldn't shout
    Am                      F       C
The song was coming from my mouth
        E7  Am
from my mouth
        F   C
 from my mouth
        E7  Am
from my mouth 
       F    C
from my mouth
        E7  Am
from my mouth
        F   C
 from my mouth
        E7  Am
from my mouth 
 

Am      F   C
from my mouth
        E7  Am
from my mouth
        F   C
from my mouth
       E7  Am
from my mouth
