Verse 1:
D               A         D       A      G
Sorry that I'm scared of thunder like a dog
                         D
I know that you love rain
       A          D        A         G
But I cry when something shakes the walls
                  D
Tail between my legs
     A          D      A
I scratch while you relax
           G                 D
Ruffling feathers watching storm clouds pass
D            A        D         A      G
Hoping I'll make you hate the thunder too
D        A      D       A       G
Digging in my claws to make you hate me too

Interlude: A

Chorus:
         G                  Bm
I can't stand you in my bed
              A
You're too gentle I need you to
G                 Bm   A
hurt me back instead
       G
I wish I could take you back to California
Bm                          A
Where you'd never heard of creatures like me
G
Little bird won't you fly away
G
Little bird won't you fly away

Interlude: D A D A G (x2)

Verse 2:
     D         A      D     A     G
And sorry that I roll over to my folks
                         D
It's not that I'm ashamed
          A      D       A        G
But they keep me on the leash to choke
                   D
I'm a hunting breed
     A      D       A
And bird is all they eat
         G                    D
If they sniff you out, they gnash their teeth
        D      A       D      A      G
I'm a coward scared of living outside
      D      A       D       A       G
Even if it means I crush you at my side

I need you to hurt me back instead
        G
I wish I could take you back to California
Bm                         A
Where you'd never heard of creatures like me
G
Little bird won't you fly away
G
Little bird won't you fly away

Bridge:
          Bm  Bm
When the bell rings
(nc)
My mouth waters
      A  A
I'm a habit
(nc)
That won't alter
          G
I'm an instinct
Don't you fear me?
G
Hunting songbirds in my sleep

Outro:
D          A        D        A         G
Sorry that I don't treat you like I should
                      D
I only lick my wounds
      A         D
Teeth bared, and snap
         A           G
"You're all that's good"
                    D
If I chase you away
    A        D         A
I'm back to chasing tail
          G            D
Running circles after what was real
     D         A         D       A        G
And maybe one day I'll catch it and I'll cry
D             A       D       A         G
Wishing that little songbird was still mine
