Intro:
             B                   Gbm
All of these birds, all of these birds in my head
         E
Swarming around, pecking to keep me up and I can't come down
B                             Gbm
All of these words building a house in my head
             E                                                  Ebm
Tearing it down, the wreckage is keeping me up and I can't come down

Verse 1:
Dbm                E
The carnage of the cardinals they haunt me
Abm                Gb
The buzzing of the hummingbirds ignite me
Dbm              E
The ravens got a carnival that's rocking
   Abm            Gb
me wide awake like there's nothing at stake
Dbm               E
'Cause I was born as perfect as the skies are
Abm                      Gb
head latched open to the skylark
          Dbm               F                  Abm
But now my brain's a prison for the flight, oh get out of my head
               Gb
Get out of my head
                 E Dbm Abm Gb
Get out of my head

Chorus:
B                               Gbm
All of these birds, all of these birds in my head
         E
Swarming around, pecking to keep me up and I can't come down
B                             Gbm
All of these words building a house in my head
             E                                                  Ebm
Tearing it down, the wreckage is keeping me up and I can't come down

Verse 2:
Dbm               E
The murmur of the starling song is maddening
Abm                      Gb
The murder of the crowns is coming at me
Dbm                 E
The ticking of the clock is trying to mock me
Abm                 Gb
I'm wide awake like there's nothing at stake
Dbm                  E
Cause I am still the architect of this cage
Abm               Gb
and I set all the raptors on a rampage
Dbm                           E                     Abm
Begging for a rapture, for an escape, get out of my head
               Gb
Get out of my head
                 E Dbm Abm Gb
Get out of my head
                E Dbm Gb
Get out of my head

Bridge:
Abm        Gb                   E
I feel the madness wrapping me up here
Dbm        Gb                     Abm
Sun in my eyes, it's a beautiful sun
Abm        Gb                   E
I feel the madness wrapping me up here
Dbm                               Gb
Open the latch, let me into the light

Chorus:
B                               Gbm
All of these birds, all of these birds in my head
         E
Swarming around, pecking to keep me up and I can't come down
B                             Gbm
All of these words building a house in my head
             E
Tearing it down, the wreckage is keeping me up and I can't come down
