[Intro]
[C] [Dm] [F] [C] [C] [Dm] [G] [C]
 
[Verse1]
[C]I couldn't utter my love when it [Dm]counted
Ah, but I'm singing like a [F]bird, 'bout it [C]now
And I couldn't whisper when you needed it [Dm]shouted
Ah, but I'm singing like a [F]bird, 'bout it [C]now
 
[Chorus1]
[Am]Words hung a[G]above
But [C]never would [F]form
[Am]Like a cry at the [G]final [C]breath that is [Am]drawn
[Am]Remember me [G]love, when [C]I'm [Fmaj7]reborn
[Am]As the shrike to your [G]sharp and glorious t[C]thorn
 
[Dm] [Am] [G] [C]
[Verse2]
[C]Had no idea on what ground I was [Dm]founded
All of that goodness is [F]going with you [C]now
[C]Then when I met you my virtues un[Dm]uncounted
All of my goodness is [F]going with you [C]now
 
[Chorus2]
[Am]Dragging [G]along, f[C]follow in your f[F]form
[Am]Hung like the [G]pelt of some [C]prey you had [Am]worn
[Am]Remember me [G]love, when [C]I'm re[Fmaj7]reborn
As the [Am]shrike to your [G]sharp and glorious [C]thorn
 
[Instrumentalinterlude]
 
[C] [Dm] [F] [C] [C] [Dm] [G] [C]
 
[Verse3]
I [C]fled to the city with so much dis[Dm]discounted
Ah, but I'm flying like a [F]bird to you [C]now
[C]Back to the hedgerows where bodies are[Dm]are mounted
Ah, but I'm flying like a [F]bird to you [C]now
 
[Chorus3]
I was [Am]housed by your w[G]warmth
[C]Thus [F]transformed
By your [Am]grounded and [G]giving and [C]darkening [Am]scorn
[Am]Remember me [G]love, when [C]I'm re[Fmaj7]reborn
As the [Am]shrike to your [G]sharp and glorious [C]thorn
