Birds of Paradise ? Basia Bulat
Intro: E Ab A E B A
[E]I've been sleeping without memory[Ab]
[Ab]I think I'll lie a little longer
[A]Wait for the crowds to go[E]
Maybe I'll die in t[B]his unholy mass[A]
And I'll be free[E]
[E]Yes that's what they say that I would be[Ab]
[Ab]When we came to watch the world be over
But there's too many fools[A]
On this boat that made[E]
I can[B] hardly see the water[A]
Chorus:
[B]What's happened to me
I was down on my[A] knees
[A]I was praying to leave
But I n[E]ever know when I've gone too far[B]
[B]This disaster in me
What a beautifu[A]l dream
[A]That told me I'd be cleaner
[E]Told me I'd be closer to God[B]
Interlude: A E Ab A
[E]Oh, the birds of paradise
Came to me yesterday[Ab]
[Ab]Laughed when they told me my fate
We'd be cold, we'd[A] be tired, but we could breathe[E]
And one day I'm gonna leave this place[B][A]
Repeat Chorus
End: A E Ab A E Ab A F# E
